TAL's take
High-impact academic research role at a reputable medical school, though lacks commercial tech-industry compensation signals.
Very well-defined responsibilities and research objectives within a specific lab environment.
Must haves
- PhD in Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, CS, Virology, or Immunology
- Hands-on experience with multi-omics data integration
- Proficiency in analyzing bulk and single-cell transcriptomic datasets
- Proficiency in R and/or Python
- Familiarity with HPC and GPU programming
Tools and skills
Nice to have: spatial omics, gwas, ai, machine learning.
About the company
Academic medical research institution, tier 2 as it is a prestigious research entity but not a commercial tech firm.

Anyone going for masters now to the US
My friend is going for MEM in USA in Duke university and just asking anyone here is going there to as he can have a chat with them
What a wonderful point made. Right after leftist students walked out of his speech.
Remember to have fun folks
OpenAI Funds Duke University's 'AI Morality' Research
* OpenAI has granted funding to Duke University for a project titled 'Research AI Morality', aiming to develop algorithms predicting human moral judgements. * The research, part of a larger $1 million grant, is led by Walter Sinnott-Armstrong and Jana Borg, known for their work on AI's potential as a 'moral GPS'. * The challenge lies in the inherent subjectivity of morality and the biases in AI's training data, raising questions about the feasibility of such an algorithm.
