澳大利亚国立大学博士后职位—计算生物学
Research Fellow
Australian National University
This is a unique opportunity for an emerging multi-disciplinary computational biologist to join our highly-collaborative, Jubilee Joint Fellowships research program operating between the ANU School of Computing and the John Curtin School of Medical Research. You will:
Develop computational tools and models to predict disease phenotypes from multi-parametric cytometry data
Use graphs to identify pathogenic variation signatures present in an extensive, closed clinical genomics dataset
Build your expertise in current high-throughput phenotype data and machine learning to link causal genotypes to human disease
The Opportunity
Established in early 2022, the Jubilee Joint Fellowships program seeks to appoint a post-doctoral fellow to join the research group of Dan Andrews. The appointee will have a joint appointment between the ANU School of Computing and the John Curtin School of Medical Research.
At the heart of the research within the Andrews laboratory is the data-driven effort to predict medical consequences of mutations identified in personal human genomes. This brings together work built on a base of high-throughput bioinformatics computation to identify genetic variation in genomes. These platforms feed downstream into computational biology investigations that focus on the application of deep learning in cellular phenotyping and prioritisation of pathogenic protein mutation with structural bioinformatics. The group is embedded also in translational activities through the Centre for Personalised Immunology at the John Curtin School for Medical Research.
This position will actively engage in the research of the group and will focus on driving individual projects that will be developed in discussion with the appointee. There will be the opportunity to co-supervise and mentor research students and contribute to undergraduate teaching.
