Job Description:
We are seeking a highly motivated Bioinformatics Analyst with experience working in the field of metagenomics or microbial genomics. You will be joining a well-established Applied Bioinformatics group which brings together expertise in biology, computer science, statistics, bioinformatics and software development. The successful candidate will conduct research and collaborate with scientists using high throughput sequencing technologies on metagenomic and transcriptomic strategies, examining the microbial communities and processes that underlie sustainable soil systems, microbial community functional resilience and plant-microbe interactions. You will take a leading role in developing new strategies to analyse and interpret HTS metagenomic and transcriptomic datasets from soil, plant and environmental biomes, incorporating total community analysis (functional gene analysis, phylogenetic and network analysis), comparative genomics, de novo assembly of targeted community genes and selected microbial genomes.
