Academia Sinica Logo

We conduct research in diverse areas of computational biology, data science and machine learning, including multi-omics data integration of cancers, optimal treatment design for heterogeneous and evolving tumors, single-cell omics data analysis, evolution of biomolecular networks and human populations, topological characterization of networks, and unsupverised learning using deep neural networks. Group members will gain experience in learning domain knowledge, performing scientific reasoning, formulating and solving mathematical models, developing algorithms, writing programs and using existing packages, collecting and analyzing big data, and interacting closely with international and domestic collaborators. We look for motivated persons curious about open scientific problems and willing to dedicate energy and time to solve them.

【Position description】
The Institute of Statistical Science of Academia Sinica is seeking visionary scientists to join our interdisciplinary research community. Applications are invited for tenure-track appointments as Full/Associate/Assistant Research Fellows (equivalent to Full/Associate/Assistant Professors in Universities). This tenure-track faculty position expects candidates to have new insights into statistics, data sciences, and computer science-related fields, including artificial intelligence.

【Job description】
Academia Sinica, Taiwan's most preeminent academic research institution, offers generous research funding, travel support, faculty housing, and other benefits. The Institute of Statistical Science provides a secure and stimulating research environment, with more than 30 faculty members, supportive administrative and IT teams, and many international visiting scholars annually. Unlike the universities, our faculty members have the freedom to choose to teach or not to teach.

Dr. Cheng is a neurobiologist. New positions are open for Laboratory Assistants and Postdoctoral Fellows interested in using the mouse to study molecular and cellular mechanisms of axon guidance and adult neurogenesis.

The Research Center for Environmental Changes, Academia Sinica (Taiwan), seeks a Full Research Fellow (professor equivalent) to provide strategic leadership for the Anthropogenic Climate Change Center (AC3, https://rcec.sinica.edu.tw/index_en.php?action=researchGroup&cid=1). The AC3 aims to understand and quantify the impacts of anthropogenic global warming on extreme climate and high-impact weather with focus on East Asia and Taiwan. We specialize in Earth system climate modeling and climate diagnostics using empirical and numerical methods, collaborate with top universities, secure government funding, and actively participate in CMIP6 and the upcoming CMIP7 using the in-house Taiwan Earth System Model (TaiESM).

Position Overview
We seek a distinguished senior researcher with proven expertise in climate science and demonstrated administrative leadership to server as the center’s principal investigator and administrative head. The appointed individual will be responsible for guiding interdisciplinary research initiatives, directing the strategic planning of the AC3, and enhancing Taiwan’s capabilities in Earth system modeling.

Key Responsibilities
*Provide strategic and operational leadership for AC3’s research programs and related administrative activities.
*Advance Taiwan’s earth system climate modeling and climate diagnostics capacity and impact.
*Supervise and coordinate participation in CMIP activities.
*Secure and administer research funding and promote national and international collaborations.
*Provide mentorship to junior researchers and contribute to capacity-building initiatives in climate science.

Our laboratory is currently seeking two postdoctoral researchers and additional research assistants with expertise in molecular and cell biology techniques. Responsibilities include the development of a high-throughput analysis platform to investigate protein degradation and biomolecular interactions. The ultimate goal of this research is the development of targeted protein degradation therapeutics. Interested candidates should submit their CV to hcyen@as.edu.tw.

We are actively seeking Research Assistants with an interest in chromatin biology, gene regulation, and functional genomics to join our team. The successful candidate will have strong organizational
skills and enthusiasm for working in a collaborative research environment. We investigate how disease-associated mutations in chromatin regulators and histones disrupt gene regulation.
Research Assistants will support ongoing projects through basic cloning, molecular biology and tissue culture, and will have opportunities to learn CRISPR-based mutagenesis and genomics
techniques.

Overview
We are seeking 1–2 postdoctoral fellows to join our lab in studying polymicrobial
interactions and host–microbe interactions with agricultural relevance. Our research
integrates comparative genomics, ecological sampling, microbial genetics, and
functional assays to understand how fungi, bacteria, and phages interact within
polymicrobial communities and how these interactions influence microbial pathogenesis
in plant hosts.
Our lab has strong expertise in functional genomics and experimental evolution, using
bottom-up approaches to address these questions. We welcome postdoctoral
researchers with complementary interests—such as plant immunity, evolutionary
genomics, or microbial ecology—to join our team. This position is ideal for recently
graduated PhD scientists who are passionate about microbial interactions and aspire to
pursue a faculty position in academia.
The position is open until filled.

Research Topics
1. Genetic basis of fungal–bacterial–phage interactions and their impact on
microbial community development
2. Comparative analysis of microbial pathogenic genes in single versus mixed
infections
3. Bioinformatic and evolutionary analysis of antimicrobial genes in plant pathogens
Job Responsibilities
1. Lead and contribute to independent and collaborative research projects
2. Design and conduct experiments and/or computational data analyses
