**The role**

The wealth of genomic data available today holds the secrets to the relation between genetic variation and biological function - from molecular mechanics, to cellular programs, to tissue health and organismal fitness. All we need are the appropriate models to address the appropriate questions. In this job you will address this by developing deep learning models grounded in principles of evolution and Bayesian statistics. The models you will develop will hopefully impact both our understanding of the most fundamental principles of life, but also the clinical care we offer to patients.
