The laboratory of Dr. Sahin in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at MUSC is recruiting a post-doctoral fellow in bioinformatics with cancer biology. The lab focuses on elucidating molecular mechanisms of cancer therapeutics, drug resistance, and metastasis, and developing novel anti-cancer therapeutics. The role involves analyzing high-dimensional molecular data from cancer patients to guide personalized therapy and support clinical trial inclusion.
Job Responsibility:
Analyze and interpret complex molecular datasets to identify clinically actionable changes
Advance the integration of multi-omics and clinical datasets to uncover mechanisms of tumor evolution, therapeutic resistance, and potential biomarkers
Assess molecular biomarkers for inclusion in controlled clinical trials
Collaborate with leading scientists to develop innovative workflows and pipelines for high-dimensional data analysis
Work with the PI to develop a career development plan and participate in various career advancement opportunities
Interact and coordinate efforts with undergraduate/graduate students and postdoctoral fellows in the same research group
Stay updated on the latest advancements in bioinformatics and genomics research and present findings to internal teams and external stakeholders, while also publishing research outcomes and presenting at conferences
Requirements:
Doctoral degree (Ph.D. or equivalent) awarded within the last 3 years in bioinformatics, genomics, genetics, computational biology, biomedical informatics, computer science, medicine, biostatistics, or related disciplines
Experience in data science in cancer biology and/or immunotherapy development
Excellent organizational, written, and oral communication skills
Nice to have:
Experience with deep learning modelling
Experience with bioinformatics projects
Relevant publications in peer-reviewed journals
A strong background in programming (e.g. Python or R)
Demonstrated experience with machine learning modelling
Interest in learning biological/genetic concepts
Experience in advanced molecular and cell biology techniques and animal handling/breeding
