Job Description


A Postdoctoral Research Associate or more senior research position in computational biology is available in the Pritykin lab at the Lewis-Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics and the Computer Science Department at Princeton University.

We seek candidates with computational biology, bioinformatics, computer science, machine learning, statistics, data science, applied math and/or other quantitative backgrounds who are enthusiastic about bringing their expertise to addressing fundamental problems in biology and medicine using cutting-edge technologies.

The Pritykin lab (http://pritykinlab.princeton.edu ) uses applied statistics, machine learning and efficient algorithms to address fundamental problems in biology and medicine by integrative analysis of multi-dimensional data. We develop and apply computational methods for design and analysis of high-throughput functional genomic assays and perturbations, with a focus on single-cell, spatial and genome editing technologies. For this position, we are seeking candidates interested in applying these technologies to studies of regulatory genomics of cell function and cell-cell interactions, especially in immunology and cancer. A successful candidate will have an opportunity to lead and contribute to a range of exciting collaborative projects, and develop new projects.

PhD in a relevant field is required. Strong track record of productivity is essential. Experience with biological data analysis is a plus but not required.
