PhD/Postdoc in Human Statistical and Computational Genomics
PhD/Postdoc in human statistical and computational genomics
Description : Modern molecular techniques of high-throughput genotyping, sequencing and phenotyping bring the promise to disentangle the complexity of human health and disease. These high-throughput techniques generate large amounts of data, whose analysis is a major challenge to modern bioinformatics and statistical genomics. *Job description* You will work on development of methods and software for high-throughput analysis of genomic and phenomic data, including genome-wide association analysis. In collaboration with other group members, you will work on the application of already existing and newly developed methods to analysis of multiple health-related complex human traits. *Requirements* A candidate should have strong interest in genetics and biology of complex traits and quantitative data analysis, a natural sciences or mathematical background, and possess good command of English. A candidate should be enthusiastic, accurate, flexible and able to work in a team. Expertise in programming and statistical analysis is strongly recommended. Experience of work with large data sets, and familiarity with Linux environment is strongly recommended for a Post-Doc and would be considered as an advantage for a PhD candidate. Any of the following skills will be considered as an advantage: knowledge of C/C++, Perl, Python, SQL, R and/or S, Web technologies, and high-performance parallel computing technologies. Experience in analysis of biological data is welcome. *Conditions of employment* We offer you an appointment at Erasmus MC as a PhD student for a period of 4 years. The gross monthly salary amounts € 2.007,- in the first year and increases to € 2.572,- in the fourth year with a full-time appointment, according to the PhD salary scales of the CAO UMC.

Research at Erasmus MC covers a broad field, ranging from illness to health, and from individual to community healthcare. Successful candidate will join an enthusiastic international team working on a wide range of health-related traits in the Department of Genetic Epidemiology led by Prof. Cornelia van Duijn. The candidate will be positioned in the group of Dr. Yurii Aulchenko. *Information* For additional information, please contact Yurii Aulchenko (tel. + 31 10 704 3362, or e-mail i.aoultchenko@erasmusmc.nl). *Application* Your application letter should include a curriculum vitae and mention the vacancy code 45.07.08.C13. These should be addressed to Ms. H.D. Brijnen, HRM consultant, room AE 330, PO Box 2040, 3000 CA Rotterdam before January 1, 2009 You can also send your application by email to personeel.cl13@erasmusmc.nl
