Computational Scientist I - Applications of Long - Read Sequencing
Share Job
- Suggest Revision
- The field of human genetics and genomics is witnessing a paradigm shift in the capacity of emerging technologies to assemble each individual genome and capture nearly all genetic information in each human.
- and the Broad Structural Variation (BSV) Group, we are seeking exceptional computational scientists to join our research program and work toward understanding how this variation differs across human populations and impacts rare disease patients.
- Our research team is based at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, with members in the Data Sciences Platform, Program in Medical and Population Genetics, and Stanley Center for Psychiatric Research, and in the Center for Genomic Medicine (CGM) at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) and Harvard Medical School.
- The team member will focus on leading research projects related to analyses of long-read sequencing and structural variation in population studies such as the All of Us Research Program and the genome aggregation database (gnomAD), as well as rare disease programs including the NHGRI Mendelian genomics program (GREGoR) and the NICHD Fetal Genomics Consortium.
- Additional areas of interest could include computational methods for genome assembly, population genetics, functional genomics, or structural variant interpretation in rare disease.
