Job Description
The Ahmed-Brimah Lab at Syracuse University invites applications for a Postdoctoral Researcher to join a collaborative research program that applies single cell genomics and bioinformatics to investigate mechanisms of developmental gene regulation in mice and flies. Projects will focus on understanding the molecular mechanisms that govern cellular differentiation, neurogenesis, and gametogenesis using various developmental systems, both in the mouse and Drosophila.
The appointee is expected to be both highly independent and collaborative and will need to significantly contribute to the design of new projects. A key requirement is that the individual have the ability to see intellectually and technically complex projects through to their conclusion, which will involve developing methodological approaches and reviewing, analyzing, and interpreting scientific data and results from the projects. Great autonomy and independent decision-making is expected in designing and implementing strategies for achieving research goals. The appointee will write papers for publication based on research, compose project reports; present at seminars and national meetings; and participate in research group meetings that may include oral and/or written brief reports.
Qualifications
• PhD in computational biology, genomics, bioinformatics, computer science, statistics, mathematics or related discipline.
• Expert knowledge in bioinformatics and/or computational biology.
Job Specific Qualifications
• Substantial experience with data science and statistical analysis.
• Strong quantitative analysis skills and experience developing algorithms and/or conducting statistical analysis with large datasets, particularly genome-wide assays such as RNA -Seq and ATAC -Seq.
• Strong conceptual and practical background in functional genomics methodologies and techniques.
• Strong proficiency in computer programming (Python and R) and Unix HPC infrastructure.
• Demonstrated excellent research capabilities required to carry out innovative and insightful research.
• Proven record and ability to produce research to a high publication standard.
• Ability and willingness to undertake collaborative research.
• Ability to maintain a safe working and learning environment.
• Ability to achieve project goals within time and budget.
Responsibilities
• Perform high level analysis of functional genomics datasets
• Lead efforts to develop projects on single-cell genomics 4 of 4
• Write manuscripts

About Syracuse University
Syracuse University is a private, international research university with distinctive academics, diversely unique offerings and an undeniable spirit. Located in the geographic heart of New York State, with a global footprint, and nearly 150 years of history, Syracuse University offers a quintessential college experience.
The scope of Syracuse University is a testament to its strengths: a pioneering history dating back to 1870; a choice of more than 200 majors and 100 minors offered through 13 schools and colleges; nearly 15,000 undergraduates and 5,000 graduate students; more than a quarter of a million alumni in 160 countries; and a student population from all 50 U.S. states and 123 countries. For more information, please visit www.syracuse.edu.
About the Syracuse area
Syracuse is a medium-sized city situated in the geographic center of New York State approximately 250 miles northwest of New York City. The metro-area population totals approximately 500,000. The area offers a low cost of living and provides many social, cultural, and recreational options, including parks, museums, festivals, professional regional theater, and premier shopping venues. Syracuse and Central New York present a wide range of seasonal recreation and attractions ranging from water skiing and snow skiing, hiking in the Adirondacks, touring the historic sites, visiting wineries along the Finger Lakes, and biking on trails along the Erie Canal.
EEO Statement
Syracuse University is an equal-opportunity, affirmative-action institution. The University prohibits discrimination and harassment based on race, color, creed, religion, sex, gender, national origin, citizenship, ethnicity, marital status, age, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression, veteran status, or any other status protected by applicable law to the extent prohibited by law. This nondiscrimination policy covers admissions, employment, and access to and treatment in University programs, services, and activities.
Commitment to Supporting and Hiring Veterans
Syracuse University has a long history of engaging veterans and the military-connected community through its educational programs, community outreach, and employment programs. After World War II, Syracuse University welcomed more than 10,000 returning veterans to our campus, and those veterans literally transformed Syracuse University into the national research institution it is today. The University’s contemporary commitment to veterans builds on this historical legacy, and extends to both class-leading initiatives focused on making an SU degree accessible and affordable to the post-9/11 generation of veterans, and also programs designed to position Syracuse University as the employer of choice for military veterans, members of the Guard and Reserve, and military family members.
Commitment to a Diverse and Inclusive Campus Community
Syracuse University maintains an inclusive learning environment in which students, faculty, administrators, staff, curriculum, social activities, governance, and all other aspects of campus life reflect a diverse, multi-cultural, and international worldview. The University community recognizes and values the many similarities and differences among individuals and groups. At Syracuse, we are committed to preparing students to understand, live among, appreciate, and work in an inherently diverse country and world made up of people with different ethnic and racial backgrounds, military backgrounds, religious beliefs, socio-economic status, cultural traditions, abilities, sexual orientations and gender identities. To do so, we commit ourselves to promoting a community that celebrates and models the principles of diversity and inclusivity.
