The Chairholder will foster a collaborative environment with other members of the Institute to harness the unprecedented opportunities afforded by recent advances in genetics, genomics, information? technologies, and data sciences to create breakthroughs in our understanding of the molecular basis of disease, thus facilitating improved risk stratification, targeted prevention, and effective therapies to improve human health.
The Chairholder and team will be housed within the Institute's laboratories, located within the medical research complex on McGill’s main campus, and will benefit from strong collaborative links with other McGill researchers within the Department of Human Genetics, and across the School of Biomedical Sciences on campus and at McGill-affiliated hospitals. The Chairholder will benefit from world-class research facilities for genomics computation, high-quality phenotyping, intra-vital imaging, metabolomics, genome editing, animal facilities including containment level 3 laboratories, and access to specialised infrastructure for experimental therapeutics and clinical trials at the McGill-affiliated hospitals. The Institute receives core funding in its role as a national facility for genomics, epigenomics and computational methods, and for its facilities for the study of infectious and inflammatory diseases housed in part at the McGill Research Centre for Complex Traits. It also hosts the Centre for Genomics and Policy, which addresses policy issues arising from genomics and other areas of biomedical research. The Chairholder will benefit from close interactions with a major new program, “DNA to RNA” (https://dossiers.mcgill.ca/d2r/), led by McGill and funded by the Canadian government, to make Canada a world leader in the development of genomics-guided RNA-based therapies.
Qualifications and education requirements:
Applicants for the Chair should possess a PhD, MD, or equivalent, and have scientific expertise and experience in human genetics, genomics, quantitative analysis, immunology and/or systems approaches in medicine, as demonstrated by a strong publication record in internationally recognised scientific journals, success in obtaining funding from public and private sources, and leadership roles in large, interdisciplinary projects. Experience working within or collaborating with pharmaceutical or biotechnology industries will be an asset given that an important goal of the Institute is to translate research results into improved health.
The successful applicant will have the demonstrated capacity to create, inspire and coordinate inclusive teams in which members are from diverse backgrounds and areas of expertise. The Chairholder will have the skills to promote a shared vision that will engage and motivate collaborators and stakeholders in support of the program, including international partnerships. A demonstrated ability to work well with internal and external partners and potential stakeholders, such as funding agencies, charities, patient advocacy groups, private companies and the public, will be an important criterion for this position. The Chairholder will contribute to innovative training in genomic medicine at McGill. Candidates will be expected to possess the skills needed to recruit, teach, and mentor a diverse group of researchers and trainees.
