Description The Reilly Lab in the Genetics Department at Yale School of Medicine (www.reilly-lab.com) is seeking postgraduate researchers with either a wet lab or computational focus. We’re a collaborative, hard-working, and supportive team that develops and uses cutting-edge genomic tools to study human disease and evolution. The promise of unlocking the human genome’s full potential to cure disease or understand our evolutionary history hinges on our ability to build new tools for interpreting uncharacterized genomic regions. To that end we’ve developed cutting-edge methods for CRISPR editing, high-throughput reporter assays, and machine learning. Our lab applies these tools to understand evolutionarily significant genomic loci, the precise genetic mechanisms underlying complex traits, and disease risk for neurological, autoimmune and metabolic disorders. We are looking for strong candidates with either a human and cross-species evolutionary...

Description The Reilly Lab in Yale School of Medicine’s Department of Genetics (www.reilly-lab.com) is seeking postdoctoral researchers for funded projects to understand how genetic variants impact human health, evolution, and disease. We seek to answer a fundamental question remaining in biology: “how do genetic changes lead to functional changes at the molecular, cellular, and phenotypic level?” We’re especially interested in understanding the role of non-coding cis-regulatory elements (CREs) in the genome, with a focus on variation within them. Genome-wide association studies have identified hundreds of thousands of genetic variants associated with human health and disease, but mechanistic traction has been limited.  Similarly, natural selection is a powerful driver of human genetic variation between populations and may still impact modern traits or diseases (e.g. height, sickle cell anemia). The Reilly lab develops and...

Description We are excited to announce a Yale postdoctoral fellowship opportunity from the Kavli Institute for Neuroscience. We encourage applications that cross the boundaries of more than one field to address important questions in neuroscience: for example, outstanding projects that bring together individuals working in different scientific areas, or those that apply technologies developed in other disciplines such as physics, chemistry, computer science or engineering. The Postdoctoral Fellowship  will support postdocs at the interface of neuroscience and another field, under the joint supervision of at least two mentors with different areas of expertise. Funding will support one year of postdoctoral effort, at a level of $5,000 above the corresponding NIH postdoc scale, plus an additional $20,000 for research allowance. Qualifications Eligibility: Postdoctoral applicants should be within four years of attaining their PhD....

Description We are excited to announce a Yale faculty award opportunity from the Kavli Institute for Neuroscience. We seek neuroscience innovation in several forms: 1) to bring together scientists from different disciplines to tackle a problem in a novel way (“Interdisciplinary projects”); 2) to create innovative teams that tackle established questions with the goal of seeding future program grant applications (“Innovative teams”). These forms of innovation are not mutually exclusive. 1 - Interdisciplinary projects: These high-risk, high-reward seed grants support early-stage and innovative brain research projects aiming to catalyze cross-disciplinary research between at least two (2) Yale investigators. We encourage applications that propose science laying outside of common approaches. For example, outstanding projects may adapt technologies initially developed in physics, chemistry, computer science or engineering to advance...
