Job Description
Computational Biology
The qualified candidate will perform computational gene annotation. The group will also perform in-silico
genetic sequence analysis (genome assembly, sequence alignment, gene structure finding, etc.), public
biological data mining and knowledge management. He/she will participate in population-based genetic
discovery of biomarkers of human disease.
Statistics
Will perform data analysis and consulting for internal microarray development team for the design of
experiments, data-mining to resolve manufacturing problem identification, clinical and genetic data analysis
in connection to population genetic data. Will devise smart algorithms and statistical methods to utilize
genotype data for healthcare applications and design the experiments to discover human disease biomarkers.
Medical Informatics
Will develop/upgrade clinical databases in cooperation with clinicians and perform analysis on the internally
generated genotype data as well as clinical data to discover new clinical treatment, and better healthcare and
wellness care.
Software Development
Will develop/upgrade software infrastructure for public and internally generated genomic biology and
genotype data for human SNP. Will coordinate the development of Internet-based commercial software for
our genotyping biochip products.
Minimum Requirements
Ph.D. or equivalent experience in bioinformatics or related field such as biological science, computer science,
statistics, applied mathematics, medical/clinical informatics, etc. Extensive experience in bioinformatics,
