Bioinformatics/Computational Biology Position - 

The University of Pittsburgh Cancer Institute and the Benedum Oncology
Informatics Center announce a one or two-year Postdoctoral Fellowship in
Oncology Informatics.  The successful applicant will work well on a
multidisciplinary research team on the optimization of computational
approaches to the pre-interpretive and interpretive analysis of high
throughput genomic and proteomic data, and will enjoy opportunities to
interface directly with >20 UPCI-affiliated cancer researchers and
colleagues in biostatistics, human genetics, computer science and pathology,
in a dynamic, fast-paced, cutting edge research institute.  Qualifications
include a background in the biological sciences, with demonstrable
programming experience in C++ or JAVA.  Demonstrated experience with coding
alignment algorithms, concepts of statistical learning, computational
structural biology and computational genomics a plus.  The fellow will be
encouraged to complement their previous training with the many excellent
courses offered at the University of Pittsburgh in machine learning,
biostatistics, computational biology and bioinformatics.  A second year of
funding is dependent on the availability of funding.  Applicants should send
a cover letter describing their background and experience, a curriculum
vitae, and three letters of recommendation to
