Applicants must have a strong potential for creative research in molecular and genomic approaches aimed at understanding human disease and/or translation of molecular and genomic findings on human disease to clinical practice. Applicants who have contributed to the understanding of genetics of human diseases using phenotype information and biospecimens collected directly from patients and families, as opposed to in vitro work to obtain mechanistic views of action of genes and proteins, will be given preference. Preference will also be given to applicants with expertise and publications in statistical/computational human genomics. Applicants must also have a strong interest in imparting training in human genetics.
