A bioinformatics analyst works with large databases of omics data, such as genomics studies like the Human Genome Project. Your responsibilities in this career include research on the pathology of diseases and the development of experiments and algorithms to find cures. Your duties also involve ensuring compliance with all federal regulations and protocols. You may document your findings and present them at conferences as well. A career as a bioinformatics analyst requires advanced writing skills for writing scientific literature.
| Aspect | Bioinformatics Analyst | Bioinformatics Technician |
|---|---|---|
| Required Credentials | Bachelor's or Master's in Bioinformatics, Biology, or related field; experience with data analysis tools | Associate's or Bachelor's; focus on data processing and laboratory support |
| Work Environment | Research labs, biotech companies, healthcare institutions | Laboratories, research facilities, academic settings |
| Employer & Industry Usage | Used in research, healthcare, biotech industries for data interpretation | Used for data collection, sample processing, and technical support roles |
The main difference is that Bioinformatics Analysts focus on analyzing complex biological data and interpreting results, often requiring advanced degrees. Bioinformatics Technicians typically handle data collection, sample preparation, and technical tasks, supporting analysts and researchers. Both roles are essential in the biotech and healthcare industries, but they differ in responsibilities and required qualifications.

This is a grant-funded, full-time (40 hrs/week) non-tenure track position through 08/31/2027. Funding is available for one year, but continuation past the first year is contingent on successful annual review and available funding.
Work Location: Department of Plant Pathology & Crop Physiology, LSU AgCenter, Baton Rouge, Louisiana
Position Description: The postdoctoral research associate will be involved in several projects focusing on bioinformatics analyses of whole genome sequencing, RNA sequencing, and metagenomic/metatranscriptomic datasets derived from fungi and plants. The postdoctoral research associate will be expected to lead all data analyses, contribute to the execution of greenhouse/growth chamber experiments, write manuscripts, present results at meetings and conferences, and mentor undergraduates. Prior experience with developing reproducible computational pipelines on a high-performance computing framework, conducting transcriptomic and comparative genomics analyses, and a background in plant and/or fungal evolutionary biology is preferred. Laboratory experience in DNA/RNA extractions and sequencing library preparation would also be beneficial.
Qualification Requirements: PhD degree in biology, biochemistry, mycology, botany, ecology, plant pathology or other related field. Demonstrated experience (publications) carrying out genomic, transcriptomic, or evolutionary biology studies, preferably in the context of plant or fungal biology, is required. Preference will be given to those with a background in the genomics of plants or fungi. Excellent interpersonal, oral and written communication skills and a willingness and ability to interact and collaborate with other scientists are essential to the success of the research. A valid Louisiana State driver's license and ability to drive is required at the time of appointment.
Salary and Benefits: Salary will be commensurate with education and experience. The LSU AgCenter has an attractive benefits package with a wide variety of benefit options. Current benefits offered include retirement, multiple medical insurance options, supplemental insurances (dental, life, long-term disability, accident, vision, long-term care, etc.), Tax Saver Flexible Benefits Plan (saves tax dollars on some child care and medical expenses), university holidays (14 per year, typically includes a week off at Christmas), generous annual (vacation) and sick leave benefits, Employee Assistance Program, and possible educational leave and tuition exemption for coursework at campuses of the LSU System. Specific benefits depend on job category, percent effort and length of employment.
Date Available: Upon completion of the selection process.
Application Deadline: August 1, 2026 or until a suitable candidate is identified.
Application Procedure: Apply online at https://lsu.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/LSU (or through Workday for internal applicants) by attaching files containing a letter of application, curriculum vita, official university transcripts, and contact information for references. Paper, faxed or e-mailed application materials will not be accepted. Questions or requests for additional information regarding this position can be sent to:
