Publicerad 2024-12-14

Job Description

About the Role:

We are looking for an experienced and highly analytical Senior Bioinformatician/Data Scientist to join our research and development team. In this role, you will drive the discovery, development, and curation of gene-editing systems and mobile genetic elements (MGEs), with an emphasis on therapeutic applications. This position offers an exciting opportunity to work at the forefront of bioinformatics, particularly within large-scale metagenomic and microbiome data projects, as we explore new possibilities in gene-editing, viral integration, and secondary metabolite discovery.


Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead research and curation efforts focused on gene-editing systems, moving beyond CRISPR screening to identify and annotate novel gene-editing mechanisms.
  • Apply advanced bioinformatics methods to catalog and characterize diverse gene-editing systems, with a focus on their therapeutic potential.
  • Identify, curate, and analyze MGEs and viral integration events within metagenomic datasets.
  • Develop methods to track and characterize these elements, enhancing understanding of their roles in gene mobility, genomic instability, and therapeutic applications.
  • Conduct comprehensive analyses on large metagenomic and microbiome datasets, utilizing robust computational tools to process and interpret complex data.
