About the role
The Cheng Lab at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis, TN is seeking a Postdoctoral Research Associate to investigate mechanisms of gene regulation and genetic variation in human hematopoiesis and blood disorders. The lab integrates single-cell multi-omics, functional genomics, human genetics, computational biology, and genetic/epigenetic perturbation to study how cis-regulatory elements control gene expression and influence disease, including a major NIH-funded project on fetal hemoglobin regulation in sickle cell disease.
The postdoc will have flexibility to develop projects within the lab's broader research program, such as integrating single-cell multi-omic data, determining how genetic variation alters regulatory architecture, or functionally testing regulatory elements via CRISPR-based perturbation.
