Postdoc Fellows: Bacterial Genetics and Epigenetics
Fang Lab
Department of Genetics and Genomic Sciences
Institute for Data Science and Genomic Technology
Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai
Our lab pioneered the fast growing field of bacterial epigenomics
(Nature Biotechnology, 2012; Nature Reviews Genetics, 2018,
Nature Microbiology, 2020, Science, 2022). We also pioneered the use of DNA
methylation for high resolution microbiome analysis (Nature
Biotechnology, 2018; Nature Methods, 2021). We have rich
experience in long read sequencing technology (both PacBio and
Oxford Nanopore), systems biology and precision medicine.
Opening
: We are looking for highly motivated PostDoc
Fellows to (1) make
fundamental discoveries in the basic biology of bacterial
epigenetics; (2) translate
basic science discoveries into medical impact; (3) systems
biology of pathogens, microbiome and host.
Successful candidates will have unique opportunities
with
(i) a
highly interdisciplinary and innovative lab culture where
members with dry/wet background closely discuss and learn from
each other;
(ii) our
unique expertise in long read sequencing, multi-omics, rich
clinical samples and strong collaborators;
(iii) take
the lead role in projects developing cutting edge, pioneering
technologies with high biomedical and clinical impact;
(iv) strong
mentorship in both research and career development;
(v) Compensations
are highly competitive with subsidized housing in New York City.
Requirements:
1) Candidates
are expected to have solid experience in bacterial genetics.
2) Ability
to learn and master new knowledge and technologies,
3) Abilities
to lead an independent research direction while adapting to a
collaborative environment,
4) An
innovative yet critical thinker.
How to apply: Please send the following to
fanggang@gmail.com: 1) A brief cover letter, 2) CV with a list
of publications, 3) PDF files for the papers in which you are
first/co-first author.
Thank you for your
interests!
