Are you interested in helping to develop an infrastructure for the Danish healthcare system? Is everyday life in an exciting and challenging position in an international atmosphere with a focus on the patient, research, innovation, and clinical advice something for you? Do you have experience with whole-genome sequencing and genetic analysis in a clinical setting? Then you may be the clinical bioinformatician we are looking for.

About the Danish National Genome Center
The Danish National Genome Center is a government agency under the Ministry of Health. The Center is responsible for operating and developing a secure national infrastructure within the national healthcare system, supporting doctors and researchers in developing targeted therapies by leveraging knowledge about patient's genes and leveraging new technology.

Over the next few years the Danish National Genome Center (NGC), will contribute to an increased use of whole-genome sequencing and genetic diagnostics across the Danish healthcare system and expects to sequence around 60,000 whole-genomes. This requires comprehensive data analysis, interpretation, and knowledge sharing across the country. The clinical interpretation of the data will be performed at clinical departments in the regional healthcare system with extensive knowledge, including the Knowledge Base in NGC, as well as external knowledge and external databases. NGC is responsible for providing software and tools used for interpretation to the regional healthcare system.

The position includes:

  • Contact to the clinical environments in the regions to map needs and plan the design of the infrastructure that NGC will provide to the Danish healthcare system.
  • As a clinical bioinformatician you will be a link between the clinical departments and NGC, and be part of a highly specialized team in NGC's supercomputer department.
