Job Description:
The Califano Lab in the Department of Systems Biology at
Columbia University is seeking exceptionally qualified candidates
for multiple Postdoctoral Research Scientist (Experimental)
positions. Successful candidates will have extensive wet-bench and
single cell technology development expertise in to be involved in
highly competitive research leading to highly innovative,
high-impact publications. The ideal candidates shall have
outstanding scientific credentials, including first-author
publications and conference presentations relevant to the field of
single cell biology. Candidates possessing a strong background in
single-cell technology development and methodologies-such as
CROP-Seq, perturb-Seq, ATAC-Seq, CITE-Seq and single cell library
generation and profiling-combined with expertise in disciplines
such as cell and molecular biology, immunology, genetics,
biochemistry and related sciences will be especially well suited.
Familiarity with computational biology approaches would be a useful
addition but is not needed to fulfill the requirements for this
position, as appropriate training will be provided by the lab. The
optimal candidate would also have significant experience and
publications in systems biology, including familiarity with
regulatory/signaling networks and spatial representation of
cellular transcripts and proteins, to elucidate the molecular
determinants of specific cellular phenotypes and associated
mechanisms in cancer.
Integration of quantitative analysis, high-throughput
experimentation, and technology development is the hallmark of the
Department of Systems Biology at Columbia, especially in the
Califano lab. As such, the Postdoctoral Research Scientist will
work collaboratively on multidisciplinary teams to develop or
improve single-cell methodologies for the analysis of cell
regulatory and signaling networks; use models to test how the
genomic and epigenomic diversity affect pathophysiologic
phenotypes, including in the context of development and cancer;
develop new methodologies and technologies for the elucidation of
biological mechanisms using systems biology approaches; and testing
the interaction between the Master Regulator driven regulatory and
signaling logic of the cell and small molecule inhibitors.
The candidate will be expected to participate in a highly collegial
lab environment, training other lab members based on their
expertise, participate in team science research, and become
successful in writing successful grant proposals. The Califano lab
has an outstanding record of placement for its former members
ranging from academic position, including department chairs, to
leading positions in industry, from group leader to chief
scientific officer.
