The Wellcome Genome Campus has been at the forefront of genetic and genomic research since its inception, when it played a key role in the successful completion of the Human Genome Project. The Human Cell Atlas is a new generation of international collaborative genome-scale project focused on comprehensive sequencing of human cells and tissues at the resolution of individual cells with single cell transcriptomics.  This is an exceptional opportunity, at a scientifically fascinating moment in time, to build a team focused on profiling human cells and tissues using single cell genomics techniques coupled with computational analysis. Exciting recent advances in high-throughput single cell genomics have made a systematic, high-resolution map of cell in the human body a realistic prospect. This will offer unprecedented insights into biological processes and provide a new level of understanding of human health and disease.  The project lends itself to a modular workflow consisting of three elements: sample collection (including cell disaggregation and sorting), genomics and bioinformatics. These three elements will be supported by a team of wet and dry lab staff, brought together by an overarching management structure comprised of a Principal Staff Scientist who will be assisted by a Project Coordinator. Communication skills in order to ensure fruitful interactions with faculty within and outside Sanger/UK will be key to the success of the Principal Staff Scientist in this role. You will be passionate about science and research, able to lead and develop a team of wet and dry lab scientists, and a natural collaborator who can build new partnerships and networks. You will play a key role in driving forward this exciting and ambitious genomics project over the next five to ten years.  [More]

There is a vacancy for a permanent associate professor position at the Department of Biology (BIO) within fish health (bacteriology).   Work tasks / research field / teaching Fish health is an expanding field at the University of Bergen (UiB). It is a goal to be in the research front nationally and internationally, and to be a leading institution on expertise on fish health education. The Fish health groups at BIO are central to research and education within fish health and in the work for healthy fish in Norwegian aquaculture. Research is important for the aquaculture industry, in particular in the production of farmed fish and interactions with wild fish stocks. Research in bacteriology aims to clarify fundamental properties for pathogenic bacteria and disease processes for farmed species. The research shall promote curiosity driven science in the field, ranging from pure basic research to applied problems.   The research at BIO is organized in 14 research groups. The fish health field encompasses three research groups: Fish Immunology, Fish Diseases and the Sea Lice Research Centre. Research in fish health is both experimental and related to fieldwork. The most important fields are immunology, parasitology, bacteriology and virology, where for example methods in molecular biology, cell biology, anatomy/histology/cytology, bioinformatics and evolutionary biology is used. The research groups have modern and well equipped research laboratories, including specialized facilities for fish research. Teaching in fish health is included in the position. Completed education program in fish health provides authorization aqua medicine, and the right to use the title aqua veterinarian. In 2015 BIO was awarded resources to expand the annual intake of students in the program from 10 to 25 students.
