Tufts University in Boston is hiring a Part-time Lecturer in Bioinformatics (non-tenure track) The part-time lecturer’s responsibilities will include developing and teaching up to three new courses appropriate for MS-level and advanced undergraduate students in biology who do not have prior expertise in computer science: • Biostatistics for Bioinformatics (using R) (fall): a new course covering core statistical concepts essential for modern bioinformatics analysis, with topics including regression models, hypothesis testing, multiple testing correction, and interpretation of p-values and z-scores. We expect most class examples and homework assignments will be directly relevant to mammalian biology, physiology, and disease. • Introduction to Bioinformatics (spring): a new course introducing fundamental concepts, data types, and analytical approaches in bioinformatics, exposing students to a broad range of applications such as genomics in cancer and rare disease, single-cell and bulk transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and other data-driven biological analyses. Most students in this course will have taken Biostatistics for Bioinformatics (above) and will concurrently take a new hands-on course in Applied Bioinformatics (not part of this position). • Elective (either semester): One additional new bioinformatics-related elective that matches the candidate’s expertise and is accessible to biology-trained students. https://apply.interfolio.com/182390
