About this position

Postdoctoral Associate opportunity in genomics and transcriptomics at The Jackson Laboratory

The Beck Lab at The Jackson Laboratory for Genomic Medicine and the University of Connecticut Health Center in Farmington, Connecticut is recruiting a postdoctoral fellow to work on structural variation, repetitive and complex regions of mammalian genomes, and the mechanisms and consequences of genomic variation.

The project combines wet-lab and computational research. The fellow will analyze existing genomic and transcriptomic datasets, use bioinformatics tools, and conduct laboratory experiments to test hypotheses about novel loci and variant effects. The lab specifically mentions work with human and mouse samples, transcriptional effects, and reproducible analysis.

Research areas and keywords: genomics, transcriptomics, structural variation, bioinformatics, molecular biology, biochemistry, cell culture, iPSC culture, Python, R, statistics, Linux, and high-performance computing.

Eligibility highlights: applicants should hold a PhD in Physiology, Molecular Biology, Genetics, Biomedical Engineering, or a related field. A strong publication record is required. The post also seeks excellent communication, teamwork, independence, and willingness to learn computational tools if needed. Experience with cell culture, especially iPSCs, and with structural variation or variant mechanisms is beneficial.

Funding/salary: this is a paid postdoctoral position with salary bands listed from $65,589 to $75,569 depending on postdoctoral experience.

How to apply: submit a CV, at least two letters of reference, and a one-page maximum statement through the linked application page.

Institution: The Jackson Laboratory is an independent nonprofit biomedical research institution with locations in the United States and internationally.

Funding details

Full funding including tuition fees and living expenses is available for this position. The scholarship covers all educational costs and provides a monthly stipend.
