Our lab studies epigenetic regulation and biomarker discovery during pregnancy and in early childhood, through genetic, epigenomic and transcriptional analysis of carefully phenotyped clinical samples, functional in vitro and in vivo studies and bioinformatics analysis. 

As a Research Fellow, you will be actively involved in projects that identify important genes/regulatory regions that associate with epigenetic regulation of genetic, developmental and metabolic diseases. We will also use such biomarkers to study the underlying mechanism that contributes to the disease, and their applicability for molecular diagnosis and drug development.  

*Requirements:*

-A PhD in Biomedical Science, Biochemistry or related field 

-Experience in Biochemistry and molecular biology techniques that include but are not limited to DNA extraction, sample preparation, PCR or Experience in high-throughput sequencing data analysis

-Experience in working on DNA sequencing equipment and engineering touch base will be an advantage

-Preferably from a cross-disciplinary background (such as bioinformatics, genomics, clinical science)

-Possess excellent communication skills ]]>
