Postdoctoral Researcher (d/w/m) in Genomics and Computational Medicine Apply now Work time full-time, part-time Start date 01.03.2026 Employment period limited Application deadline 19.01.2026 Deployment location Charité BIH Berlin Mitte Jobcode 6029 Salary group E13 Company description The mission of the Berlin Institute of Health at Charité (BIH) is medical translation: transferring biomedical research findings into novel approaches to personalized prediction, prevention, diagnostics and therapies and, conversely, using clinical observations to develop new research ideas. The aim is to deliver relevant medical benefits to patients and the population at large. Since 2021 the BIH has been integrated into Charité as its so-called third pillar. For the Computational Medicine group, we are looking for a Postdoctoral Researcher (d/w/m) in full-time or part-time (min. 35h/week), initially for a period for three years, starting as soon as possible. We are seeking to recruit outstanding talent at different levels of experience, from emerging leader(s) to junior postdoctoral researcher with a focus on Human Genomics including experience in single-cell genomics to join the Computational Medicine team at the Berlin Institute of Health. This is a fantastic opportunity for individuals with a strong track-record and keen interest in establishing their own research group as well as those seeking their first postdoctoral position. We will consider candidates with experience and interest in different areas, from functional, statistical, or computational genomics. The successful candidates will have evidence of the application of cutting-edge genomic technologies and high-throughput screening to understand the genetic basis and mechanisms underlying human diseases. We are looking for applicants with a strong translational focus, driven to identify new genetic targets for the prevention, diagnosis, or treatment of different diseases in diverse populations. For individuals with experience or interest in single-cell genomics technologies, there is an opportunity to conduct research with recently generated large-scale data in collaboration with the team of Prof. Simon Haas (see here). What you can expect Advancement of the groups research strategy for molecular precision healthcare through the use of ethnically diverse biobank-scale DNA sequencing resources, including whole exome and whole genome sequencing, in agreement with the leadership team Development of the research group, supervision, development and management of junior staff and students Developing bioinformatic workflows that integrate population-scale genomics research with data from single cell experiments, to identify disease relevant cell types and states Mining of electronic health records to sample patient cohorts for genetic analysis Implementation and development statistical techniques to associate rare and structural variation in the human genome with health outcomes at scale, including the use of deep learning derived variant prioritisation methods Using genetically anchored causal inference methods to advance understanding of the genetic causes and mechanisms underlying diverse diseases and their subtypes in ethnically diverse populations What you bring along PhD in genomics, statistical genomics, genetic epidemiology or a closely related discipline Stage-appropriate track-record of high-impact research and publications in the field of genomics, multiomics, and/or single call analysis Evidence of successful grant funding and managerial experience, depending on career stage Demonstrable experience in several of the following areas: 1) Generation and/or analysis of high-throughput genomic data, 2) Genome-scale association analyses using large-scale whole-genome or whole-exome sequencing data, 3) High level of proficiency in computational genomics e.g, variant annotation, 4) Processing and analysis of multimodel single cell 'omics data, including sc-RNAseq or sc-ATACseq, ideally linked to germline genetic variation Aptitude for biological inference and clinical translation Demonstrable extensive experience with principal programming languages in HPC or cloud enviroments High level of proficiency in the English language What we offer you A varied job in a forward-looking research institute Pay group E13 TVöD VKA-K.
