Scientist, Computational Biology and Genomics
Arena BioWorks, located in Cambridge, MA, is a new biomedical research institute focused on uncovering the mechanisms of human disease to identify opportunities for therapeutic intervention. The institute's private funding model allows Arena to advance novel therapeutics by forming and supporting biotech companies up to early clinical or Series B stage.
As a computational biologist working in the AI/ML, Data Science, and Data Engineering team in close collaboration with the Disease Models and Mechanisms team, you will focus on analyzing the results of advanced CRISPR-based screening approaches with a goal of deciphering biological functions of genes in the context of disease through mechanistic investigation into gene function and regulatory networks. You will work closely with the Disease Models and Mechanisms team to analyze the results of integrative high-throughput disease-relevant functional assays to identify therapeutic targets and assess physiologically relevant target engagement. You will be expected to develop and apply new computational and statistical methods to analyze and interpret data from functional genomics and other types of high-throughput screens. The successful analysis and interpretation of functional genomics experiments will have broad applications in biomedical research and in the development of novel therapeutics for human diseases.
The qualifying candidate is expected to thrive in a multidisciplinary and highly collaborative environment. The desired candidate is enthusiastic about developing and implementing analysis tools for high-throughput platforms with a goal of addressing outstanding biological questions and generating meaningful insights into human disease. They also strongly value collaborating with scientists across teams and scientific areas and enjoy continuously learning from the expertise of their peers and colleagues.
