　　Job Summary:

　　The Howard Hughes Medical Institute has a postdoctoral position available in the laboratory of Dr. Norbert Perrimon at Harvard Medical School.   The Perrimon lab uses Drosophila as a model system to characterize the mechanisms underlying communication between cells, tissues, and organs, more specifically, focusing on the composition & organization of signaling networks, the cell signaling in time and space as well as the communication between organs.  The lab is actively generating such data sets of omics scale and this position will involve developing new algorithms analyzing these datasets.  You will work collaboratively with a small team of biologists and programmers in a fast-paced environment.
