    • Support the overall efforts of the Rare Genomics Institute and its RareShare team.

    Desired Skills and Experience:

    • Bachelor’s or higher degree in life sciences or biomedical field.
    • Ability to interpret, critically assess and validate the accuracy of complex rare disease scientific and medical information.
    • Strong writing, editing, reviewing and verbal communication skills.
