Job Description
We are seeking a highly-motivated candidate for a research fellow position available in the Kappei Lab at the Cancer Science Institute of Singapore. Our team addresses research questions on nucleic acid-protein interactions with quantitative mass spectrometry, cell biological and genetic approaches applied to cancer research. Specifically, the successful candidate will be actively involved in a research project investigating how RNA loops (R-loops) impact genome stability and gene expression. This project will span a variety of experimental approaches, e.g. chromatin immunoprecipitation, mass spectrometry-based interactomics approaches as well as extensive bioinformatics data analyses. The successful candidate will design and conduct experiments, analyse data and write manuscripts
Duties And Responsibilities
Requirements:
• A PhD in life sciences, medicine or related fields
• Strong background and working knowledge of basic molecular and cell biological techniques
• Strong practical experience with relevant techniques, e.g. ChIP, interactomics, gene expression
• Strong experience with relevant computational tools and ability to code in Python or R
• Excellent communication skills and good team spirit
• Fluent in spoken and written English
Applications should include in a single PDF a 1-page cover letter, curriculum vitae, certificates of qualifications and the names and contact information of at least 2 professional references.
