Position Description

The Coruzzi Lab is currently accepting applications for a Postdoctoral Associate

position at NYU's Center for Genomics and Systems Biology.

Plant Systems Biology @ The Coruzzi lab: https://coruzzilab.bio.nyu.edu

The Coruzzi lab at NYU's Center for Genomics & Systems Biology has an open position

for a highly motivated and independent individual to work as a Postdoctoral Associate.

This position is for a post-PhD trainee preparing for a research scientist career path -

with a future in Academe or Biotech. The position will provide a transition to career

independence through the development of professional skills; supervision by senior

scientist incorporating individual development plan in support of training goals and

those of faculty mentor; and publication of research findings/scholarship during

postdoc appointment period.

Overview: A major goal of systems biology is to model gene regulatory networks to

accurately predict causal interactions between transcription factors (TF) and target

genes. Our lab focus is on predictively modeling and validating gene regulatory

networks involved in nitrogen (N) use in plants including the model Arabidopsis and

crops, including maize and rice. We use time-series transcriptome N-response data and

machine learning to learn causal networks using machine learning approaches. For high

through put validation, we are using a plant cell-based assay called TARGET scaled up

to cover TFs spanning all TF families in Arabidopsis, maize and rice. We aim to identify

the master transcription factors in such networks that control NUE/WUE in plants, with

a focus on ones conserved across genotypes within species and also across species.

We follow-up with validation in planta including green house and field studies.

Arabidopsis: HHO5 & N-dose signaling: https://doi.org/10.1093/plcell/koag201

Maize: NUE Networks: https://academic.oup.com/plcell/article/37/5/koaf093/8129742'

Rice: NUE/WUE Networks & Validation: https://doi.org/10.3389/fpls.2022.1006044

Computational (ML & Bipartite Networks): https://doi.org/10.3389/fgene.2024.1371607

Location: NYU's Center for Genomics and Systems Biology is located at 12 Waverly

Place, New York, NY 10003, in the historic and vibrant Greenwich Village in downtown

Manhattan. NYU is one of the world's leading research universities and its Center for

Genomics and Systems Biology is housed in a new, state-of-the-art facility with 27

faculty members who study Genomics and Systems Biology across all kingdoms of life.

In compliance with NYC's Pay Transparency Act, the annual base salary for this

position is $63,000.00 depending on experience/expertise. New York University considers

factors such as (but not limited to) the specific grant funding and the terms of the

research grant when extending an offer.

Qualifications

The successful applicant will hold a Ph.D. and have skills and experience in both

Genomics and Bioinformatics. The position will require both experimental and

computational skills for the generation and analysis of NextGen datasets - including

RNA-Seq, Chip-Seq and Atac-seq and others. Computational proficiency in R, Perl,

Python, or other programming language are strongly preferred. This position also

includes training in the writing of grant applications and reports, paper writing and

communicating our work in conferences and meetings.

Application Instructions

Please upload your application materials via Interfolio. Include the following items: 1)

CV including a list of publications; 2) a cover letter; 3) three reference letters emailed to

gloria.coruzzi@nyu.edu.
