Postdoctoral Research Scientist at Columbia University Irving Medical Center

Postdoctoral research scientist positions are available in Dr. Xuebing Wu’s lab at Columbia University Irving Medical Center in the New York City. We study the fundamental principles of how genetic information is coded and decoded in health and disease and how to target these processes in cancer, heart disease, aging, and neurodegeneration. To achieve these goals, we utilize cutting edge technologies, including CRISPR, genomics, and machine learning.

We are looking for both experimental biologists and computational biologists. Start date is flexible. Applicants should have a recent Ph.D. in life sciences or relevant field and have demonstrated research productivity through publications. Prior experience in molecular biology/genomics research is preferred. Interested applicants should apply to xuebing.wu@columbia.edu by sending (1) a cover letter summarizing research interests and accomplishments, (2) a complete CV with a publication list, and (3) contact information for three references.
