**Position available**: Post-doctoral Fellow, EMULSION Programme **About EMULSION Programme**: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a metabolic disease of global concern, affecting over a quarter of the world?s population. It is a leading cause of chronic liver disease, and one of the most common indications for liver transplantation, and a cause for liver cancer. NAFLD in Asian populations is unique from that in Western populations: it is typically characterized by a lower body mass index, younger age, increased complication rate, and higher prevalence of a "thin fatty liver" phenotype. The EMULSION programme is a national initiative to build an Asian study cohort to identify common and divergent molecular disease drivers of Asian and Western NAFLD. We seek a Post-Doctoral Fellow to join us in our discovery of molecular drivers of NAFLD. **In this position, you will**: ? Lead molecular, cell biology, and in vitro approaches to discover molecular drivers of NAFLD ? Ability to work well in cross-functional teams within EMULSION R&D environment ? Strong analytical and conceptual abilities to independently design and execute experimental research strategies ? Provide guidance to junior scientists **You will need**: ? A PhD in a relevant field (e.g. molecular biology, cell biology, human disease) ? Experience in molecular and cell biology techniques, and mammalian cell culture ? A track record of accomplishment, such as evidenced by first-authored publications (in preparation is OK) ? Good oral and written communication skills **It would be great if you had**: ? Scientific background in liver biology and/or metabolism ? Experience working with liver cell lines and primary cell culture, and genetic manipulation in cell culture systems ? Experience in mouse models, especially of liver biology ? Able to process and layer multi-omics data **Interested applicants are invited to send**: ? Resume ? Contacts of minimum two referees ? A brief statement explaining research achievements (1 to 2 pages) About the Genome Institute of Singapore The Genome Institute of Singapore offers a competitive salary and a complete benefits package that ensures a very high living standard in one of the most modern cities in the world.
