Research Assistant Professor Position in Cell Biology Full-time
The Department of Cell Biology at Albert Einstein College of Medicine invites applications for a non-tenure track Research Assistant Professor position in Computational Cell Biology and Data Science. We seek outstanding candidates with a Ph.D. in Computational Biology/Bioinformatics, Cell Biology, or related fields. The ideal candidate will have demonstrated expertise in computational analysis of high-throughput biological data, including single-cell RNA-seq, bulk RNA-seq, ATAC-seq, ChIP-seq, and/or image analysis, as well as other next-generation sequencing platforms. Candidates should be highly collaborative and enthusiastic about applying computational strategies to advance cell biology research.
The Research Assistant Professor will play a central role in computational projects across the Department of Cell Biology. Research focus will be in the area of computational cell and molecular biology and bioinformatics. Specifically, the Data Scientist will be involved in projects led by various faculty, postdoctoral associates, and students in the Department of Cell Biology and help them develop and carry out computational strategies for the (multi-platform) analysis of new datasets generated in their own and others’ labs, including mouse, human, and cross-species analysis. Data sets will include a variety of next generation sequencing techniques (including transcriptional and epigenetic assays) as well as single-cell data. Your work will involve both collaborative studies as well as guiding and teaching the members of the labs and the department in procedures needed to analyze such data. You will report directly to the Chair of the Department of Cell Biology.
The Department of Cell Biology at Einstein was one of the first in the country (founded in 1961) and has a rich and distinguished history of scientific discovery and innovation, as well as mentoring, training, and education. It consistently ranks among the top 10 in the nation in funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and in the top 5 in NIH funding per investigator. Einstein possesses outstanding research faculty and enjoys an exceptionally collegial and collaborative environment. Our department has very strong ties to other basic science departments, institutes, and centers at Einstein, as well as clinical departments at Montefiore Medical Center.
