**Position Description**:
The Research Institute at The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) is seeking an outstanding **Scientist **(equivalent to Assistant Professor) whose research is focused on functional genomics, systems biology of disease and epigenetics. Anchored in modern sequencing capabilities and with the rapid development of single cell approaches and CRISPR-based screening technologies, systematic functional approaches to target discovery are accelerating our understanding of diseases and opportunities for therapeutic development. At the interface of functional genomics, systems biology, bioinformatics, data analyses, chemical biology and biologics, this position reflects the need for deep functional annotation of the human genome and systems-level understanding of disease. Research in these areas are also fully aligned with SickKids Precision Child Health initiative. This faculty position is permanent full-time and will include an accompanying appointment in a relevant department at the University of Toronto.

The successful applicant’s research program will be housed at the SickKids Research Institute in the state-of-the-art Peter Gilgan Centre for Research & Learning (686 Bay Street, Toronto, Canada), located in the Discovery District in the heart of downtown Toronto. SickKids is fully affiliated with the University of Toronto - Canada’s largest and top-ranked university, and our researchers benefit from the extensive research facilities at the UofT and other affiliated institutions. The position offers a unique environment for medical science discoveries, with nine teaching and research hospitals in close proximity. The position offers the opportunity to conduct research, teach, and live in one of the most vibrant, safe, and diverse cities of the world.

The SickKids’ Research Institute includes advanced, innovative core facilities for our scientists and their collaborators supporting basic, translational, and clinical research. These facilities provide state-of-the art technologies including comprehensive genomics, proteomics, high parameter single cell analysis, high resolution microscopy, computational modeling and analysis, animal models, high through-put drug screening as well as associated technical expertise and services to conduct leading health research and maximize impact for patients, families, communities and economic innovation. The successful applicant is expected to establish a world-leading research program in the broad areas of functional genomics, systems biology and epigenetics, and potentially the translation to clinical practice. Of particular interest are functional genomics and/or systems biology efforts toward target discovery for disease and molecular disease pathology. Experimental, cell-based and computational approaches using disease models will be considered.
