Postdoctoral Position in Genomics of Cardiovascular diseases
The INSERM UMRS 937 (http://ecgene.net/genecanvas/news.php) is an international leader department in genetic research, with emphasis placed on the disentangling of the genetic architecture underlying cardiovascular diseases. Developed programmes covered all scientific aspects related to genetic research including molecular biology, cellular biology, statistical genomics and bioinformatics.
The INSERM UMRS 937 will recruit a post-doctoral bioinformatician/biostatistician for a research project entitled "Modifications of the transcriptomic profile of circulating monocytes and adipose tissue in obese patients before and after bariatric surgery". This project relies on the longitudinal analysis of RNA-seq data.
Motivated candidate would have a PhD in bioinformatics or in statistical genetics (or equivalent experience). He/she should demonstrate strong abilities to work independently, strong interests in genomic data analysis and good communication skills. Experience in the analysis/manipulation of large datasets is required. A biological background and a preliminary experience in the analysis of RNA-seq data are highly appreciated. French language skills are not a prerequisite.
The selected candidate will work as part of a multidisciplinary team, including experienced scientists in molecular and genetic epidemiology, but also a dynamic group of graduate/PhD students. The INSERM UMRS 937 is located at the center of Paris and is part of the Pierre and Marie Curie University Campus (http://www.upmc.fr/en/index.html), the first cutting edge research French University offering a high-level scientific environment, including a NGS platform. It is also a team of the Institute for Cardiometabolism And Nutrition (ICAN) which brings together a large community of researcher, clinicians and industrial partners entirely dedicated to stimulate fundamental, clinical and translational research in the field of cardiometabolism disorders.
Position is full-time and initially restricted for two years. Positions are immediately opened and candidates should submit CV to Dr Laurence Tiret ([log in to unmask]).
