BIOINFORMATIC RESEARCH FELLOW POSITION
(Reference number: 1443643426)
 
A Bioinformatic research fellowship in cancer genomics is available at the
Department of Tumor Biology. The candidate will work at the Institute for
Cancer research at the Norwegian Radium Hospital. The appointment is for
three years, with possibility for extension.
The position is part of a research grant recently funded by the Research
Council of Norway, to establish and evaluate genome-based diagnostics for
cancer treatment decisions (see cancergenomics.no).
We seek a highly motivated research fellow to participate in cutting edge
cancer genomics research using high-throughput sequencing at the Department
of Tumor Biology, physically located at the new research building at
Norwegian Radium Hospital, Oslo, Norway.
The bioinformatician will be a part of our enthusiastic genomics team
(biologists and bioinformaticians) studying soft tissue and bone tumours,
and will be our anchor for analysis of high-throughput sequencing data
within our personalized cancer medicine initiative. The candidate will do
research using data generated at our Genomics Core Facility (Illumina data)
and public available data, and will also be involved on the analysis of
exome and transcriptome sequencing data from other cancer forms. The
candidate will also participate in projects from external collaborating
groups analyzing miRNA, ChIP-Seq and DNA methylation sequencing data.
Applicants should hold a PhD degree within the field of computational
biology with experience in computer programming and statistics. A keen
interest for genomics and sense for technology is required, and hands-on
experience in high-throughput sequencing analysis will be an advantage.
Personal characteristics, such as communication and collaboration skills,
will be given careful consideration, as well as evaluation given by
references and interview.
The application should be accompanied by a CV, list of publications and
copies of 3 selected papers, a short description of the applicant¹s own work
