Bioinformatics Scientist: Translational Genomics & Data

Rochester, NY
2026/08/15 .

“Driven by a rapid rollout of sequencing technologies across the nearly 25 years since the first complete human genome was mapped, the science of bioinformatics has fueled an engine of innovation that helps push big biological ideas and data streams into medical practice.” “Driven by a rapid rollout of sequencing technologies across the nearly 25 years since the first complete human genome was mapped, the science of bioinformatics has fueled an engine of innovation that helps push big biological ideas and data streams into medical practice.” Mark Cameron, Associate Professor, Department of Population and Quantitative Health Sciences, School of Medicine, Case Western Reserve UniversityBioinformatics is a field that combines analytics and data representation to make sense of the vast amounts of data generated every day. The field takes cues from the world’s organisms to build a healthier and cleaner future and has many applications in the modern tech landscape. In the past few decades, the sheer volume of data has increased exponentially, in large part due to the growing repositories of rich biodata from genomics and molecular biology. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports an uptick in the percentage of bioinformatics and related positions in our economy, such as computer and information research scientists, biomedical scientists, and biomedical engineers. ONET (an affiliate of the Department of Labor) defines bioinformatics as an occupation for professionals who will “conduct research using bioinformatics theory and methods in areas such as pharmaceuticals, medical technology, biotechnology, computational biology, proteomics, computer information science, biology and medical informatics.” Furthermore, bioinformatics professionals “may design databases and develop algorithms for processing and analyzing genomic information, or other biological information.” As the preponderance and availability of data grows, the need to interpret that data will keep pace. Mapping cancer genomes, for example, involves serious data input from thoroughly analyzed genetic fragments. As with every other modern medical field, data analytics plays a major role in bioinformatics, even if you have no plans to study engineering or computer science. A basic understanding of data management and presentation are useful, as well. Featured Bioinformatics & Biotechnology Programs Dr. Mark Cameron is an associate professor in the Department of Population and Quantitative Health Sciences, School of Medicine, at Case Western Reserve University. He is renowned for his expertise in leveraging genomic technologies and bioinformatic methods to identify biomarkers associated with infectious diseases and chronic inflammatory conditions. His pioneering research delves into computational analysis of gene sequences and protein function, aiming to advance the development of targeted immunotherapies and vaccines. He has a prolific publication record and editorial responsibilities in scientific journals. He holds a PhD in microbiology and immunology and a bachelor of science in biology from Western University, London, Ontario. HealthcareDegre.com: What is something you wish the public understood about bioinformatic science? Dr. Cameron: Driven by a rapid rollout of sequencing technologies across the nearly 25 years since the first complete human genome was mapped, the science of bioinformatics has fueled an engine of innovation that helps push big biological ideas and data streams into medical practice. Bioinformatic scientists and bioinformaticians, however, aren’t simply data wranglers with computers. They are the central processing units of modern biomedical research. They are the translators, so to speak, in the bench-to-beside (and back again) workflow that propels modern medical discovery. They also don’t work alone in the dim light of a computer screen. They are masterclass team scientists collaborating with health care providers, clinical trial coordinators, multidisciplinary scientists, trainees, and industrialists alike—often all at the same time—to bring biological and clinical studies to the public. HealthcareDegre.com: What advice would you give to aspiring bioinformatics science students? Dr. Cameron: Students thinking of a career in bioinformatics are in for an exciting ride, especially if they enjoy multidisciplinary science. There are many entry points for students interested in a career in STEM since bioinformatics training often runs the gamut from basic biology, statistics, and experimental design to clinical application, drug discovery, and artificial intelligence. As varied as that training is, there is also a wealth of desirable career options at the end of one’s program, including academia, government, pharma, and industry. Exciting new genomic technologies arrive on the biomedical research scene daily, each with a seemingly exponential potential for generating data. Bioinformaticians are increasingly critical to the analysis, summary, and translation of all that ‘big data’ towards a better understanding of the biology that surrounds us and/or better public health. Without bioinformaticians, all that valuable information tends to sit on hard drives. Many of us basic biomedical researchers have had to train in bioinformatics because it permeates modern experimentation. There’s never a dull moment in a bioinformatician’s or bioinformatics scientist’s training and career; in fact, right now, I’d say the world is their oyster. Bioinformatics Scientist Specialization & Career TypesThere are several bioinformatics scientist specializations and career types available for the scientifically minded. They include informatics research in the following fields: Antibiotic resistanceGene therapyEvolutionary studiesBiotechnologyCrop improvementInsect resistanceAlternative energy sourcesZoologyClimate change studiesForensic analysisMachine learningBio-weapon creationImprovement of nutritional qualityDevelopment of drought-resistant varietiesVeterinary scienceMost careers in bioinformatics can be found in computer information science, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, medical technology, computational biology, proteomics, and medical informatics. Such professionals often develop algorithms, build databases, and present data, studies, and research to other bioinformatics professionals. Databases are typically used for processing and analyzing genomic information or genetic trends. As an area of study, bioinformatics draws on biology, information technology, computer science, statistics, informatics, mathematical modeling, computational theory, data charting, data analytics, and administration. Coursework and essential knowledge may include the following subjects: probability, statistics, computing, population genetics, molecular genomic analysis, sustainability mathematics, epigenomic data analysis, biostatistics, biological mathematical modeling, and even computational neuroscience. Bioinformatics is almost always chosen as a specialization at the graduate level. Most students come from undergraduate courses of study in biology, computer science, chemistry, biochemistry, or bioengineering.

Mount Pleasant Township, PA
2026/08/15 .

Postdoctoral Fellow in Single-Cell and Spatial Bioinformatics and Quantitative Image Analysis Location: University of Pennsylvania, Penn Dental Medicine Open Date: Aug 06, 2026 Deadline: A postdoctoral position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Dana T. Graves at the University of Pennsylvania. The fellow will study inflammatory processes and how they impact the skin, mucosa, skeleton and periodontium in the context of diabetes, aging or other pathologic conditions. The position has two primary, complementary components: (1) leading bioinformatic studies using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and 10x Genomics Xenium spatial transcriptomic datasets; and (2) serving as project leader for a quantitative image-analysis study examining the spatial distribution and tissue organization of adhesion molecules in in vivo specimens. The fellow will work closely with investigators who conduct complementary experimental studies and will have substantial intellectual ownership of both areas of research. The goal is to identify mechanisms of disease and potential therapeutic targets. Research Focus Our research examines how diabetes changes cell signaling, differentiation, immune-stromal interactions, and tissue repair. Projects span several tissues, disease models, species, and experimental platforms. Component 1 - Single-cell and spatial genomics bioinformatics: The fellow will lead bioinformatic studies using scRNA-seq and 10x Genomics Xenium spatial transcriptomic datasets to identify disease-associated cell states, transcriptional programs, and spatially organized cellular responses. Component 2 - Quantitative image analysis: The fellow will serve as project leader for a study examining the spatial distribution, cellular localization, and tissue organization of adhesion molecules in in vivo specimens. This component will involve development and application of quantitative image-analysis approaches and interpretation of spatial relationships within tissues. Across the bioinformatics component, the fellow will address spatial signaling networks, cell-cell communication, and changes in cell state over time. Projects may include regulatory network inference, pseudotime analysis, and machine-learning approaches when these methods are scientifically appropriate. Where scientifically informative, results from the bioinformatics and image-analysis components may be integrated to relate molecular and cellular states to adhesion-molecule distribution. Key Responsibilities • Lead bioinformatic studies using scRNA-seq and 10x Genomics Xenium spatial transcriptomic datasets. • Serve as project leader for quantitative image analysis of in vivo specimens to characterize the spatial distribution, cellular localization, and tissue organization of adhesion molecules. • Develop clear, reproducible computational workflows. • Perform quality control, data integration, cell annotation, and differential expression analysis. • Conduct pathway, trajectory, state-transition, and ligand-receptor analyses. • Integrate multiomic, cross-species, and cross-cohort datasets. • Integrate transcriptomic data with imaging, histologic, and phenotypic measurements. • Create clear figures and communicate results to computational and experimental collaborators. • Help define analytical strategy and interpret biological findings. • Present results and prepare first-author manuscripts. • Contribute to grant development and collaborative studies. Computational Environment For the single-cell and spatial genomics bioinformatics component, a major focus will be analysis of 10x Genomics Xenium spatial transcriptomic and scRNA-seq datasets. The primary environment uses R, Seurat, and related tools. The fellow may use other validated methods when they improve the analysis. The image-analysis component will use appropriate quantitative imaging and spatial-analysis tools selected according to the specimens, imaging modalities, and scientific questions. Research Environment and Career Development The Graves laboratory combines computational discovery with in vivo models, human specimens, histology, flow cytometry, immunofluorescence, and in vitro validation. Relevant experimental systems include genetically engineered mouse models, diabetic and aging models, primary mouse and human cell cultures, and molecular perturbation studies. The fellow will have substantial intellectual ownership of both major components of the position, including leadership of scRNA-seq and Xenium bioinformatic studies and project leadership for the image-analysis study. This includes selecting analytical approaches, leading data analysis, presenting findings, and writing first-author papers. Dr. Graves will provide direct scientific mentoring and regular project guidance. The fellow will also work with collaborators and shared-resource specialists across the University of Pennsylvania. Penn core facilities provide support in single-cell and spatial genomics, biostatistics, imaging, histology, and quantitative analysis. The position offers training at the interface of computational biology, genomics, diabetes, inflammation, tissue repair, mouse genetics, and translational research. The goal is to support scientific independence, strong publications, grant development, and preparation for an academic or industry career. Qualifications Required Qualifications • A PhD, MD, DMD, DVM, or equivalent doctoral degree in a relevant field. • Hands-on experience with bioinformatic analysis of scRNA-seq or spatial transcriptomic data, with experience applicable to leadership of the single-cell/Xenium bioinformatics component. • Strong skills in R and modern single-cell analysis workflows. • Ability to interpret results in a biological and disease context. • Ability to work independently and collaborate across disciplines. • Clear scientific writing and communication skills.
