Currently Available:
Post-doctoral Fellow in Bioinformatics
Applicants should have a Ph.D. in bioinformatics, genetics, computational biology or other relevant disciplines. Experience in cancer research and/or molecular biology will be an advantage. Preference will be given to those with expertise in bioinformatics and computational biology, with strong interests in translational research utilizing single-cell sequencing and spatial transcriptomics to study liver cancer. Candidates who have a strong interest in translational research and appreciate the complexity of biological systems are particularly encouraged to apply. The abilities to work independently, participate in highly collaborative projects, and contribute intellectually to research development are requisites for the position. Applicants should have good oral and written communication skills in English. The appointee will investigate the molecular mechanism of liver cancer using next generation sequencing including single-cell sequencing and spatial transcriptomics.
Enquiries about the duties of the post should be sent to Professor Irene Ng at iolng@hku.hk.
Research Assistant Professor
Applicants should possess a Ph.D. degree in cancer biology or molecular biology, and in-depth experience as demonstrated by a relevant strong track record.
