About the role
ICR is dedicated to solving some of the most challenging problems in aging and age-related disease. We're looking for talented scientists to join our Functional Genomics group. Tasked with going "from SNP to phenotype," our Functional Genomics scientists connect genomic variants with organismic-level symptoms through molecular, cellular, tissue and animal models.
With ICR, you'll get to:
- Research the potential functional impact of any given SNP on protein or cellular function: from RNA to protein to cell to systems-level analysis including work on known disease-associated SNPs and VUSs in the context of various human primary and iPSC-derived cell types
- Project manage out-sourced work with CROs to maximize your productivity
- Collaborate with other ICR scientists and groups, including Translational Bioinformatics and Genomics, to solve complex human medical mysteries
- Identify potentially actionable targets for therapeutic development
Please Apply If You Have
- PhD in Biomedical Sciences
- In-depth knowledge of and experience with modern molecular and cellular biology techniques, preferably experience doing functional genomics
- Experience with iPSCs and iPSC differentiation protocols preferred, but mammalian cell culture experience is a must
- Experience creating and validating stem cell-derived disease models
- Programming experience (Python preferred)
- Even if you don't have all of these skills, please apply
And You'll Need
- The ability to work in the United States without sponsorship
- To have an easygoing, hard-working personality
