Our group is interested to study transcriptomics and epigenomics in health and diseases. The candidates, which will work within a bioinformatic environment, will tackle integrative analysis of higth-throughput transcriptomics and epigenomics data sets generated using cutting edge next-generation sequencing plateforms (available in host lab). Both fundamental and clinical aspects of human diseases will be addressed. Postdoc position is funded for 2 years, with possible extension. Screening of applications begins immediately and continues until an outstanding candidate is selected. Profile : Applicants should demonstrated proficiency in programming, and statistics and/or machine learning. Experience with sequence data, genome-wide data sets (ChIPSeq, RNASeq,…) will be assets.
