&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;About Arc Institute&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Arc Institute is a new scientific institution that conducts curiosity-driven basic science and technology development to understand and treat complex human diseases. Headquartered in Palo Alto, California, Arc is an independent research organization founded on the belief that many important research programs will be enabled by new institutional models. Arc operates in partnership with Stanford University, UCSF, and UC Berkeley.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;While the prevailing university research model has yielded many tremendous successes, we believe in the importance of institutional experimentation as a way to make progress. These include:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Funding: Arc will fully fund Core Investigator’s (PI’s) research groups, liberating scientists from the typical constraints of project-based external grants.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Technology: Biomedical research has become increasingly dependent on complex tooling. Arc Technology Centers develop, optimize and deploy rapidly advancing experimental and computational technologies in collaboration with Core Investigators.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Support: Arc aims to provide first-class support—operationally, financially and scientifically—that will enable scientists to pursue long-term high risk, high reward research that can meaningfully advance progress in disease cures, including neurodegeneration, cancer, and immune dysfunction.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Culture: We believe that culture matters enormously in science and that excellence is difficult to sustain. We aim to create a culture that is focused on scientific curiosity, a deep commitment to truth, broad ambition, and selfless collaboration.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Arc scaled to nearly 100 people in its first year. With $650M+ in committed funding and a state of the art new lab facility in Palo Alto, Arc will continue to grow quickly to several hundred in the coming years.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;About the position&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We are seeking an exceptional scientific leader and researcher to build and manage the Bioinformatics Center at the Arc Institute. The Center will be internally funded and staffed by research scientists under industry-competitive pay scales, with the overall mission of deploying and advancing multi-omic and functional genomics technologies to understand complex diseases.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;About you&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You love data and biology.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;We are seeking an exceptional scientific leader and researcher to build and manage the Cellular Models Center, one of the foundational Technology Centers at the Arc Research Institute. The Center will be internally funded and staffed by professional research scientists, with the overall mission of developing cellular models of human disease. One of the initial goals will be to create 2D and 3D human cellular models to model Alzheimer’s disease and other neurodegenerative disorders using stem cell-derived neurons, astrocytes, and microglia. The Center will also develop scalable strategies for creating complex, multi-cell type cultures and organoids that are compatible with cutting edge genetic screening approaches. Over time, the Center will expand to develop other models for immune-related conditions in addition to CNS disorders. Collaborations with Core Laboratories and other Centers at the institute will enable high-throughput interrogation of these models for target identification, investigation of human genetic variants using gene editing and functional genomics, and development of rational therapeutic strategies.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;About you&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;While the prevailing university research model has yielded many tremendous successes, we believe in the importance of institutional experimentation as a way to make progress. These include:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Funding: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Arc will fully fund Core Investigator’s (PI’s) research groups, liberating scientists from the typical constraints of project-based external grants.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Technology:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; Biomedical research has become increasingly dependent on complex tooling. Arc Technology Centers develop, optimize and deploy rapidly advancing experimental and computational technologies in collaboration with Core Investigators.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Support:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; Arc aims to provide first-class support—operationally, financially and scientifically—that will enable scientists to pursue long-term high risk, high reward research that can meaningfully advance progress in disease cures, including neurodegeneration, cancer, and immune dysfunction.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Arc scaled to nearly 100 people in its first year. With $650M+ in committed funding and a state of the art new lab facility in Palo Alto, Arc will continue to grow quickly to several hundred in the coming years.&lt;/p&gt;
