Postdoctoral Positions in Plant Bioinformatics

Bioinformatics postdoctoral positions are available in the lab. The Postdoctoral Associates are expected to work independently, as well as within a diverse multidisciplinary team.

Major responsibilities:
  • Development of algorithms/pipelines to analyze next-generation sequences of plant genomes, epigenomes, and transcriptomes
  • Inference of regulatory networks through integrations of different layers of information, including but not limited to genome sequences, gene and small RNA expression profiles, metabolite profiles, and DNA methylation profiles
  • De novo assembly and annotation of plant genomes and transcriptomes
  • Development of computational tools and resources/databases to integrate genomics and functional genomics datasets
Requirements:
The successful candidates will have a recent Ph.D or equivalent in Bioinformatics, Molecular Biology, Computer Science or closely related fields; demonstrated professional experiences in bioinformatics algorithm/tool development and large scale data mining and analysis.

To apply, please send a cover letter stating research interests, a CV, and the contact information of 3 references to Dr. Zhangjun Fei (zf25@cornell.edu).  Salary will be commensurate with experience.
