Northwestern Department of Neurological Surgery
Postdoctoral Research Opportunity – Functional Genomics (Wet Lab)
Northwestern Department of Neurological Surgery, Chicago, Illinois, United States, 60290
Overview
Join the Adli Lab at Northwestern University, Feinberg School of Medicine and Robert Lurie Comprehensive Cancer Center, one of the nation's leading academic medical institutions, dedicated to improving our understanding of genetic and epigenetic mechanisms contributing to human disease. Scientists in the Adli Lab work at the intersection of cutting-edge functional genomics and bioinformatics to understand genome regulation in health and disease. We use diverse genomics data to generate new knowledge of genome function in cancer and other developmental diseases. We are hiring motivated
experimental biologists with deep expertise in functional genomic tools
to join our team as Postdoctoral Scholars or Research scientists. The candidates will work on NIH-funded research projects, including generating and applying next-generation
degron technologies
for genome regulation (Morphic consortium project) or aberrant genome regulation in chemoresistance in cancer and other tumors. Our work is highly interdisciplinary, spanning statistical genetics, genomics, epigenomics, bioinformatics, data integration, and visualization. Our funded projects utilize various
functional genomic tools
(CRISPR manipulation, RNA-Seq, ATAC-Seq, single-cell multi-omics). Responsibilities
Perform wet lab experimental molecular biology and functional genomics investigations. Work on NIH-funded projects, including generation and application of degron technologies for genome regulation. Utilize and optimize techniques such as CRISPR manipulation, RNA-Seq, ATAC-Seq, and single-cell multi-omics. Collaborate with bioinformaticians to design experiments and test hypotheses computationally. Contribute to interdisciplinary research bridging biology, genomics, and computational analysis. Qualifications
PhD or graduate degree in a relevant discipline, preferably within 3 years of PhD. Experience with a wide array of molecular biology and functional genomics tools. First-author publication in high-impact journals. Desire and ability to learn quickly, think creatively, and design new analytic approaches. Ability to work both collaboratively and independently. To Apply
For more information and to apply, please email adli@northwestern.edu. Please send your CV, names and contact details for three references, and a cover letter highlighting your research interests, qualifications, and long-term career goals. Please include "Postdoctoral positions in cancer genomics" in the subject line. Northwestern University is an Equal Opportunity, Affirmative Action Employer of all protected classes, including veterans and individuals with disabilities. Women, racial and ethnic minorities, individuals with disabilities, and veterans are encouraged to apply. Hiring is contingent upon eligibility to work in the United States.
