Functional Genomics Senior Scientist/Assistant Director

We are seeking an exceptional computational biologist to lead target identification and multi-omics research efforts. In this role, you will drive the use of high-throughput, transcriptomics, epigenomics, proteomics, and functional genomics data to identify and prioritize novel therapeutic targets. You will bring a strategic, industry-wide perspective on the field — staying ahead of where it is moving and translating that into a differentiated approach which will align with Ionis's RNA-targeting and oligonucleotide platforms. You will lead a team of computational biologists, shape analytical strategy, and partner tightly with biology, human genetics, and drug discovery colleagues to bring forward the next wave of therapeutic targets.
