Documented ability to analyze and interpret human genetic data.
Experience in analyzing high-throughput proteomic platforms (MS, OLINK) data.
Academic/industrial experience using computational biology to discover clinical insights from molecular data.
Fluent in written and spoken English.
Outstanding communication and collaboration skills.
Preferred:
Experience in immune-dermatology or a highly related field such as T-cell biology.
Experience in methodologies for data integration, network/pathway analysis, genomics, statistical modeling, machine learning methodologies and their application to molecular, clinical, pre-clinical and health outcomes data for identification of predictive biomarkers for patient stratification and precision medicine.
Experience working within cross-function teams.
Industry and/or translational research experience is highly preferred.
