This role can also be described as a scientific software developer, staff scientist, data analyst or computational research assistant. Individuals from diverse or non-traditional backgrounds are strongly encouraged to apply, including those transitioning fields. The Dashnow Lab develops computational genomics methods to understand the genetic underpinnings of rare diseases and increase diagnoses. We have particular expertise in difficult-to-genotype repetitive regions such as tandem repeats. We develop and apply these methods at scale to current and emerging DNA sequencing technologies. Our research directly impacts individuals with rare diseases and their families, giving them answers and hope for treatment after a long diagnostic odyssey. The lab has strong national and international collaborations, including with large, rare disease and population consortiums and with industry. Current project funding supports new approaches for diagnosis and gene discovery for short tandem repeat diseases, computational methods development for both short and long-read sequencing technologies, and population genetics. The Data Scientist will develop genomics software and computational workflows, analyze genomics datasets, and provide genomic and data science leadership to the lab. They will both lead projects and support projects led by other lab members or collaborators. - This role is eligible for a hybrid schedule of 2-4 days per week on campus and as needed for in-person meetings. The position is based at the University of Colorado, Anschutz campus in Aurora, Colorado. The Department of Biomedical Informatics (DBMI), located in the magnificent new Health Science building with a fabulous view of the Rocky Mountains, provides a fantastic environment for you to thrive and pursue your career goals.
