Postdoc

🌟 Calling all trailblazing scientists! 🌟 We are hiring!

🔬🚀✨ The Center for the Multiplexed Assessment of Phenotype (CMAP) is at the cutting edge of tech development, transforming variant interpretation to drive genome-guided precision medicine in clinical decision-making.

Linking phenotype to genotype is one of the most pressing problems in biology. We are looking for near or recent grads with experience in mutational scanning, molecular biology, or functional genomics to work on high-risk, high-reward technology and methods development projects that will drive the mutational scanning field forward. This is a unique opportunity to work at the cutting edge of genomics and proteomics with a team of creative and talented scientists.

This position is designed to prepare trainees for research careers in acquiring and interpreting genomic data for use in biomedical research.

Compensation

Competitive, plus generous benefits.

Available Projects/ Technologies

Potential projects include computational and molecular methods development involving:

  • Next generation sequencing

  • Deep mutational scanning (DMS)

  • Massively parallel reporter assays (MPRA)

  • Generation of allelic series

  • Genome editing and engineering

  • Microscope-Assisted Visuospatial Sorting

  • Proteomic approaches

  • Variant effect prediction algorithms

  • Repeat sequence genotyping

  • Post-translational modification analysis

  • Saturation Genome Editing (SGE)

  • Variant library creation

  • Cell differentiation assays

  • Single cell – single variant transcriptomics

  • Variant proteomics

  • and much more!!!!

The successful applicant will join one of the CMAP labs.
