Computational Neurogenomics / AI – Postdoctoral Associate

tendersglobal, New Haven, CT, United States


Computational Neurogenomics / AI – Postdoctoral Associate
Yale School of Medicine, Adams Center for Parkinson’s Disease Research , New Haven, USA

Join a mission‑driven team at Yale to build a

Parkinson’s Disease Discovery Engine —integrating

genomics, multi‑omics, and AI

to generate

digital twins of patients

and deliver

precision medicines at the right time for the right individual .

The Stephen & Denise Adams Center for Parkinson’s Disease Research and Scherzer Neurogenomics Lab combine

population‑scale human data

(>30,000 deeply phenotyped participants),

single‑cell and spatial omics , and

next‑generation AI models of gene regulation and disease progression . Our work is redefining Parkinson’s disease biology and enabling translational breakthroughs.

The role

Develop deep learning models across genome → cell → patient.

Integrate multi‑modal data (genomics, transcriptomics, biosensors, EHR).

Perform single‑cell and spatial multi‑omics analyses at scale.

Lead high‑impact publications and contribute to therapeutic discovery.

You bring

PhD in computational biology, bioinformatics, computer science, or related field.

Strong coding skills (Python required; ML frameworks preferred).

First‑author publication(s).

Experience in genomics, single‑cell data, or machine learning (preferred).

Why this is exceptional

Build next‑generation AI models of the human genome.

Work with one of the richest longitudinal Parkinson’s disease datasets worldwide.

Operate at the interface of AI, genomics, and clinical translation.

Join an interdisciplinary team spanning neurology, genetics, and machine learning.

Compensation
Highly competitive salary aligned with or exceeding top‑tier U.S. postdoctoral benchmarks, with full Yale benefits and strong support for career development and independence.
