Dear all,


The Metabolic and Molecular Biochemistry Department is recruiting a bioinformatician for a 2-year post-doctorate (with the possibility of a 3-year extension).

You will be responsible for analyzing human genomic variants from open-access databases and DNA samples.

The candidate must have :
• either a Master’s degree in life sciences (biological or biomedical sciences) with a complementary Master’s and PhD in bioinformatics,
• or a Master’s degree and PhD in bioinformatics.
The skills required are as follows:
• Knowledge of genetics and molecular biology.
• Proficiency in the knowledge and IT tools required to analyze the human genome and its variants from complex data such as those generated by Next Generation Sequencing (NGS), both short-reads and long-reads.
• Understand and use complex mathematical formulas to develop risk scores, among other things.
• Work independently and as part of a team.
• Create and manage projects.
• Know how to use variant analysis software, or know how to design it.
• Administration of scientific databases.
Previous knowledge of the analysis of the human genome and its variations, as well as technical skills in sample preparation for NGS is an asset.



Send us your curriculum vitae and a covering letter to the e-mail address frederique.coppee@umons.ac.be, quoting the job title in the subject line, before the 31th January 2024.


Best wishes,
