Open positions
Postdoc
I'm looking to hire a postdoc in Computational Biology (details below). The call will be open untill the position is filled.
The group
We are located in Stockholm at the
Science for Life Laboratory. Our research interests broadly span algorithm development and analysis of sequence data. We have ongoing projects on method development for rapid sequence mapping and sequence similarity searches, and various computational problems in transcriptomic analysis, and collaborative projects in genome assembly. We also consider your project proposals if it aligns with the group's research programs.
Qualifications
It is preferred if applicants have experience in areas such as algorithms and data structures for genomic or transcriptomic analysis, or have developed efficient software for analyzing high-throughput sequencing data. The ideal applicant has:
- A Ph.D. in Computer Science or related topic (working with Computational Biology related problems)
- Programming experience in a language such as C/C++, Rust, Python
- Published first-author papers
- Experience with analyzing DNA or RNA sequencing data
To apply
To apply, please send a letter of interest and current CV to
ksahlin@ignoreme-math.su.se. In addition, for qualified applicants, I might ask you for a couple of recommendation letters or contact details of your PhD supervisor. Applications will be reviewed until the positions are filled. Questions should be directed to me at
