Staff Scientist – Computational Biology

Job Description:

The Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, a world leader in genetic research, is looking for an exceptional Computational Biologist (Staff Scientist) to work on host-pathogen interactions.
The successful candidate will join an interdisciplinary team of laboratory scientists, computational biologists and bioinformatics to develop innovative analysis tools and to lead on the biological analysis of large datasets. The role will be based within the Institute’s Malaria Programme (Dr. Oliver Billker), but we are looking for a talented individual who can provide an effective interface with our other Programmes in Cellular Genetics and Computational Biology, in particular the Single Cell Initiative (Dr. Sarah Teichmann and others).
Ongoing large-scale projects range from screening libraries of in vitro differentiated stem cells for interactions with a panel of pathogens, to single cell transcriptomics of malaria parasite development and immunity. For informal inquiries you may contact Dr. Oliver Billker (ob4@sanger.ac.uk).
