Staff ScientistBaylor College of Medicine
USA-TX
We seek a motivated and talented bioinformatician who wants to join our group to work on human long-read applications to explore Structural Variations, Single Nucleotide, and other changes in a large population cohort. Over the next year we will produce a significant collection of long-reads across individuals of the USA population with the goal to deepen our understanding of mutations ranging from small (SNPs) to large (Structural Variations) and the impact of these mutations. In addition, we want to further the development of key software (e.g. Sniffles) and annotation resources. This will help us to better understand the mechanisms that drive mutations and their implications.
