We need to produce HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we have "WHY UT SOUTHWESTERN?" which is about the organization. Could be "About the role"? Not exactly. The posting includes a "WHY UT SOUTHWESTERN?" section describing the institution. Could treat as "About the role"? But guidelines: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to map content to these headings where appropriate. We have: - Why UT Southwestern? (organization description) maybe "About the role"? Not exactly role but could be "About the role" or maybe we can omit if not matching? The instruction: "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it". So we can create sections for content we have: maybe "About the role" (the why UT Southwestern) could be considered about the role? But it's about the employer. Could also create a custom heading? The instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It implies we should use those headings if applicable; we shouldn't invent other headings. So we need to map content to those headings. We have: - Job Summary (description) could be under "About the role"? Or maybe "Responsibilities"? Actually Job Summary is a prose description of the role. Could be placed under

About the role

with a

. - Responsibilities: we have a list of duties under "Job Duties". That's responsibilities. - Requirements/Qualifications: we have "Required EXPERIENCE AND EDUCATION" with Education and Experience. That's qualifications. - Skills: not explicitly listed but could be inferred from duties; but we should not invent. So maybe omit Skills if no explicit list. - Benefits: we have a Benefits section with list. - Pay: not mentioned (no salary). So omit Pay. - Schedule: we have "Schedule Full-time Shift Day". That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule section. Also we have location info: "Primary Location Texas-Dallas-5323 Harry Hines Blvd Work Locations 5323 Harry Hines Blvd". This is metadata; we could fold into a short

maybe under About the role or separate? The instruction: do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. So we can include a short paragraph with location. We must remove boilerplate: Security, EEO statement, etc. Also remove duplicated lines, navigation, cookie, legal, EEO, scam-warning, application instructions. Also remove "Learn more about these and other UTSW employee benefits!" maybe part of benefits but it's a link; we can keep benefits list but drop that line. We must preserve all substantive information. Let's extract content: WHY UT SOUTHWESTERN? paragraph: "With over 75 years of excellence in Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas, UT Southwestern is committed to excellence, innovation, teamwork, and compassion. As a world-renowned medical and research center, we strive to provide the best possible care, resources, and benefits for our valued employees. Ranked as the number 1 hospital in Dallas-Fort Worth according to U.S. News & World Report, we invest in you with opportunities for career growth and development to align with your future goals. Our highly competitive benefits package offers healthcare, PTO and paid holidays, on-site childcare, wage, merit increases and so much more. We invite you to be a part of the UT Southwestern team where you'll discover a culture of teamwork, professionalism, and a rewarding career!" That's substantive. Job Summary: "Perform professional work in support of scientific research using technical knowledge of software, software development, networking, and/or hardware in a complex computing environment. Subject matter expert in multiple areas of computing technology, and specific knowledge of molecular biology and genetics. Works collaboratively with Principal Investigator ("PI") to determine the most suitable computational methods and tools to analyze large-scale biological data sets. Prepare reports for presentation or publication. Responsible for assisting PI in meeting the system needs for multiple research projects and/or labs. We are seeking a motivated bioinformatics staff scientist with interests in computational analysis of complex biological data. The successful candidate will work with diverse multi-omic datasets, develop and refine analytical pipelines, and help translate biological questions into computationally driven insights. This position offers an excellent opportunity to strengthen in-demand bioinformatics and data science skills, work in a collaborative environment with both computational and experimental researchers, and contribute to impactful publications and discoveries that support future careers in academia, industry, or biotech." Then description of Xu lab: "Xu lab pioneers the application of artificial intelligence (AI) —particularly foundation models and LLMs—to drive biological and medical discovery, with a focus on interpretable and generalizable AI frameworks that extend foundation models into genomics, epigenomics, and precision medicine. For example, his team developed an AI-based approach to identify cardiovascular disease genes and validated these findings experimentally in a novel mouse model and preclinical studies, leading to publication in Nature in 2020. More recently, his team developed an LLM-based method that enabled the discovery and experimental validation of a new transcriptional biosensor, published in Science in 2026. His lab has also published multiple LLM algorithms in biology and medical applications, including DEEP-Align, DeMoP, MedLLMCoach, OmniHealthFM, and others." That seems like extra info about the lab; could be part of job summary or responsibilities. We'll keep as part of job summary paragraph. Benefits list: - PPO medical plan, available day one at no cost for full-time employee-only coverage - 100% coverage for preventive healthcare-no copay - Paid Time Off, available day one - Retirement Programs through the Teacher Retirement System of Texas (TRS) - Paid Parental Leave Benefit - Wellness programs - Tuition Reimbursement - Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) Qualified Employer We should keep as list items. Required EXPERIENCE AND EDUCATION: Education: Master's Degree In Computer Science or a related field of biological science or Bachelor's Degree In Computer Science or a related field of biological science Experience: 2 years Related research experience in bioinformatics and computational biology with Bachelor's Degree We can phrase as list. Job Duties list: - Manage research laboratory computer hardware and software programming and maintenance. - Ensure existing systems meet the continuing needs of the lab and/or recommend and test new systems as necessary. - Perform complex data analysis related to specialized research methodologies and results as assigned by the PI. - Develop and/or modify software to support new and ongoing research projects. - Resolve hardware, software, and network issues in support of the lab. - Develop and maintain complex databases to support new and ongoing research projects. - Train laboratory staff in the use of pertinent research systems. - May specialize in bioinformatics, software development, network administration, or hardware/software maintenance. - Perform other duties as assigned. Schedule: "Full-time Shift Day" Location: "Primary Location Texas-Dallas-5323 Harry Hines Blvd Work Locations 5323 Harry Hines Blvd" We can combine location into a short paragraph. Now produce HTML:

About the role

Why UT Southwestern? With over 75 years of excellence in Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas, UT Southwestern is committed to excellence, innovation, teamwork, and compassion. As a world-renowned medical and research center, we strive to provide the best possible care, resources, and benefits for our valued employees. Ranked as the number 1 hospital in Dallas-Fort Worth according to U.S. News & World Report, we invest in you with opportunities for career growth and development to align with your future goals. Our highly competitive benefits package offers healthcare, PTO and paid holidays, on-site childcare, wage, merit increases and so much more. We invite you to be a part of the UT Southwestern team where you'll discover a culture of teamwork, professionalism, and a rewarding career!

But we already have Benefits section separate; maybe we shouldn't repeat benefits in About the role. However the Why UT Southwestern paragraph includes benefits mention; we could keep it there but then Benefits section would duplicate. The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. If we keep benefits mention in About the role and also list them in Benefits section, that's duplication but not invented. Might be okay but could be considered redundant. However we could keep the Why UT Southwestern paragraph without the benefits sentence, but that would be summarizing away detail (removing benefits mention). Better to keep the paragraph as is, and then Benefits section can still list them; duplication is okay as we preserve all info. But we could also move the benefits mention to Benefits section and keep About the role without that sentence. However the instruction says do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Removing the benefits sentence from the Why UT Southwestern paragraph would be summarizing away detail (removing that detail). So we should keep it. Thus we will have About the role paragraph containing the Why UT Southwestern text (including benefits mention). Then Benefits section will list the benefits again; that's duplication but preserves all info. It's acceptable. Now Responsibilities: we have Job Duties list. Could be under Responsibilities. Requirements/Qualifications: we have Education and Experience. Could be under Requirements (or Qualifications). We'll use

Requirements

with list. Schedule:

Full-time Shift Day

Location: we can put under About the role maybe as a short paragraph after the Why UT Southwestern? Or separate

. We'll add a short paragraph after the About the role? Actually About the role already includes location? Not yet. We'll add a

with location. Now produce HTML. Check for any other sections: Pay omitted (not present). Skills omitted (no explicit). Benefits present. Make sure to use

  • for lists. Now produce final HTML fragment. Let's craft:
