Job Description:
This Bioinformatician post is to join the Centre for Computational Biology and the Institute of Translational Medicine, working with Prof Georgios Gkoutos. The post holder will be responsible for the integration and analysis of trauma patient data derived from metabolomics-based approaches, including steroidomics, and high-throughput genetics. An excellent network of biomedical and technological collaborations offers novel data types and datasets, as well as opportunities for discovery validation and translation into clinic or pharma by domain experts. The post-holder’s main aim will be to facilitate the analysis of experimental and clinical data using mathematical and statistical tools, to build up models allowing prognosticating disease evolution, treatment outcome and resistance. We anticipate that new statistical and computational methods will need to be developed to support this aim. The position requires the ability to independently take responsibility over a scientific project, strong teamwork and communication skills, reliability, attention to detail and effective time management. The duration for the post will be three years offering a considerable scope for innovation and academic development. Applicants should have a PhD or equivalent experience in Bioinformatics, Mathematics, Statistics or Computer Sciences. You'll need a relevant degree, at a minimum of a 2:1 classification or equivalent. Degree should have links with bioinformatics and science e.g. biological, biomedical, natural sciences, mathematics and computer science.
