We are looking for a highly motivated Single Cell RNA-seq bioinformatics Postdoctoral Fellows who will develop their career by contributing to our study and joining the Brazma/Marioni/Teichmann groups.
The development of high-throughput protocols for single cell RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) is generating a data deluge that is revolutionizing biological discovery.
There is an urgent need for bioinformatics methodology that can cater to this new data type.
We are looking for enthusiastic postdoctoral scientists with a background in bioinformatics, or data science, computer science, maths/statistics or physics with an interest in understanding biology at the single cell level. This project to compare adn integrate different single cell RNA-seq protocols with bulk RNA-seq data, in order to assign and annotate single cells to known cell types. These results will require novel visualisation approaches, which will be developed in the course of this research.
