Lab Manager position in Computational Biology
Job Description:?The Computational Systems Epigenomics Lab, headed by Prof Andrew Teschendorff, at the Key Lab of Computational Biology of?Shanghai Institute of Nutrition and Health,CAS?seeks to appoint a Lab Manager. The Computational Systems Epigenomics Lab carries out computational research at the interface between Epigenomics, Aging and Cancer, with a special focus on Single-Cell Omic and DNA methylation data analysis. We are interested in using computational and mathematical methods to elucidate systems-biological principles underlying aging and cancer, and specifically, to better understand the role of epigenetics and DNA methylation changes in cancer formation. In line with P4 Medicine we are also keen on developing practical cancer risk prediction tools, using epigenetic clock and single-cell approaches. For recent publications, see?https://aet21.github.io
The Lab Manager’s job will be to take care and responsibility for the day-to-day management of the lab, which includes a number of foreign students. The lab manager will assist with lab finance (accounting), organizing meetings, travel schedules, and some translation of documents from English to Chinese and vice-versa. If the candidate has appropriate qualifications, he/she will be expected to also help with maintaining and editing our lab webpages, and to assist with simple research tasks. This is an excellent opportunity for a recent graduate to develop an administrative career in academia and to improve your communication skills in English.
Essential Job Requirements:
·?An undergraduate or MSc degree, preferably in a computational/scientific discipline, but a background in biology/molecular genetics is also good.
·?Excellent oral and written English.
·?Good IT skills, Windows OS.
·?Excellent organizational skills.
·?Team Player.
The job is available with immediate effect. Interested applicants should send a brief cover letter and CV (all in English), to:
