Come join a group of scientists working at the intersection of genomics and computer science to address problems relevant to healthcare in India and across the world. CCMB[1] is currently looking to fill multiple positions in various genomics projects including but not limited to COVID genomics, population genomics, cancer genomics, and single cell genomics.
Pay: ₹38,500/- to ₹1,25,000/- per month, based on qualifications and experience.
Minimum Qualifications:
For senior positions: PhD/M.Tech/M.E in Life Sciences/Computer Sciences/Related fields
For junior positions: M.Sc/B.Tech/B.E in Life Sciences/Computer Sciences/Related fields
Desirable Qualifications:
For senior positions: A demonstrable track record of successful implementation/execution of a project in any of the following fields:
Population Genomics, Clinical Genomics, Cancer Genomics, de novo Genome assembly, Metagenomics and microbial genomics, Statistical analysis of biological data particularly in the context of Genomics. Development of computational tools/algorithms/data visualization.
Experience in handling high performance computing environments, cloud computing services, server maintenance, general purpose GPU computing, AI/ML, and other hardware related proficiency will be considered favorably.
Track record must be proven either with high impact publications in SCI-indexed journals, or profiles of source code repositories such as github, or a certificate from the organization to which the candidate contributed earlier.
For junior positions:
Good programming knowledge with proficiency in at least one language such as C, C++, R, Python, JS, or Perl, as demonstrated by publications or github profile or other code repositories.
Should be well versed with Linux/bash/command line interface, and have the ability to create and modify custom pipelines for data analysis.
Experience with analysis of population level genomic data, clinical genomics, de novo genome assembly, cancer genomics, or metagenomics will be considered favorably
If this is something that interests you, please share your CV and a cover letter (in a para or two) that outlines your relevant expertise and skill set to Dr Divya Tej Sowpati at tej <at> ccmb <dot> res <dot> in.
CSIR-Centre for Cellular and Molecular biology is a premier research organization in Hyderabad, India, working on all aspects of basic and applied biology. We are a household name in the field of genomics in India. We have been at the forefront of COVID19 genomics since March 2020, and have contributed to multiple aspects of COVID19 research, testing, diagnostics, and surveillance since the last 16 months.
Recently, we received several million dollars of funding to tackle the pandemic in India using various genomic technologies. This includes genomic surveillance, tracking and identifying new viral variants that may be of interest/concern, waste water and zoonotic surveillance etc. In addition to this, we are also funded well in other aspects of genomics such as population and cancer genomics.
We are currently looking for several talented and motivated individuals at all levels to join us in contributing to these large scale, multi-institute collaborative genomics projects of national importance. If selected, your work will involve one or more of the following:
Large scale (genomic/epidemiological) data analysis
Development or refinement of algorithms that improve the speed and accuracy of data analysis
Data dissemination using web portals
Data visualization/Statistics
Senior positions will involve leading a small team of junior devs/bioinformaticians in the above mentioned topics.
We typically use Python and R for data analysis, and our web portals are typically based on VueJS/Django/MongoDB, running on Ubuntu/CentOS servers. However, we welcome all languages and technologies.
