The Opportunity:
The Prendergast and Dunn groups at the Roslin Institute are looking for a Bioinformatics research fellow to join our team to use AI and computational approaches to study the genetics of chicken phenotypes. Using various forms of omics and imaging data they will train machine learning models to predict important phenotypes and use these models to gain insights into how genetic variants impact livestock phenotypes. The researcher will benefit from being part of a wider group of bioinformaticians and will be provided with a range of relevant resources, from unique datasets to high performance computing infrastructure.
Informal enquiries can be directed to Prof James Prendergast (james.prendergast@roslin.ed.ac.uk).
