Wheeler Lab

Wheeler Lab is a research lab based in Tucson, Arizona, with a team of 10 employees. The lab focuses on developing algorithms, statistical methods, and machine learning models to solve problems related to biological data. Their work spans a range of areas within biology, including the annotation of biological sequences, searching for similar sequences within large databases, drug discovery, soil microbiomes, transposable elements, and animal behavior. They employ various techniques, from statistical modeling of biological sequences to text indexing, software optimization, and deep learning. Wheeler Lab is actively seeking motivated postdocs and PhD students interested in tackling challenging problems in the field of biological data analysis.
