The Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Basic Metabolic Research
Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences
University of Copenhagen
We are seeking a highly skilled bioinformatician to establish and run pipelines and to deliver analytical outputs. The position is for 3 years and to commence April 1, 2020.
About us
The Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Basic Metabolic Research’s vision is to strengthen interdisciplinary research that transforms our basic understanding of the mechanisms that underlie metabolic health and disease, and to accelerate this knowledge toward new prevention and treatment strategies. We were established in 2010 and in 2017 we moved into new laboratories, offices and meeting rooms in the Maersk Tower.
The Novo Nordisk Foundation has financed the Center through two generous grants. The latest, in 2018, has allowed the Center to develop and expand its five enabling biology and technology platforms. The Center has around 200 employees from all over the world who work in a highly collaborative research environment across a range of biomedical disciplines. You can read more about us here: http://cbmr.ku.dk.
Our research
The position will be in the lab group of Professor Romain Barrès, which is part of the GECKO Consortium (Gametic Epigenetics Consortium against Obesity). This consortium, funded by a NNF Challenge Grant, aims to understand the cellular mechanisms by which environmentally-acquired epigenetic information transferred by spermatozoa to offspring can influence their development and predispose them to obesity. The GECKO Consortium is an international group of researchers from the University of Copenhagen, the University of Sydney and the University of Chicago, giving many opportunities for collaboration and insight from a variety of experts.
Your job
We are seeking a skilled and experienced bioinformatician to perform bioinformatic comparative analyses of the responses to nutritional stress across species. In particular, DNA methylation and small non-coding RNA expression in spermatozoa will be assessed using next-generation sequencing. The applicant is expected to work and consult with colleagues concerning issues of data analysis and interpretation. Additionally, the applicant is expected to formulate hypotheses, initiate projects, and manage them through to completion. Candidates with additional background in mathematical modelling, machine learning and molecular biology would be highly regarded.
The assistant professor’s responsibilities will primarily consist of:
