Altius Institute For Biomedical Sciences

Altius Institute for Biomedical Sciences is an independent, nonprofit research organization created to pursue discovery at the leading edge of modern biomedicine. Enabled by a visionary founding investment from GlaxoSmithKline, Altius is creating a new paradigm to catalyze ground-breaking biological innovation, integrate molecular and computational science and engineering, and empower fundamental technology development to radically accelerate the leap from basic to medical breakthroughs. Altius is pioneering a new framework for conceiving, executing and sharing rapidly-moving science by replacing traditional hierarchies and silos with a networked organization that maximizes discovery through synergy. We are now expanding our team of talented computational scientists with experience in machine learning, data visualization and information design. In addition, we are looking for outstanding postdoctoral researchers with computational and/or experimental experience in genomics research. These Altius Fellows will be provided with exceptional resources, operational and salary support, and mentorship to pursue groundbreaking interdisciplinary research at the leading edge of genome biology.
