**The role**

**About **the lab**

The overarching theme of the research in our lab is the understanding of the information encoded in genomic sequences, and how this information is processed in the pathway leading from DNA to protein sequences. More specifically, we are interested in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression and RNA processing, the relationship between molecular phenotypes and higher order endophenotypes and organismal phenotypes, and the identification of functional regions on the genome of all living beings. Our group is mostly computational, and we do both large scale data analysis and development of methods, but it has also an important experimental component. We participate in many large scale international functional genomics projects, such as ENCODE, GTEx, BluePrint and others.

**Must Have**
- You have an excellent academic record, previous research experience and a strong commitment for scientific research
- You have knowledge of Molecular Biology and Computational Biology
- You have familiarity with genomics / transcriptomics computational methods and data integration
