An exciting opportunity has arisen to work on a project investigating the molecular pathogenesis of palmoplantar pustulosis, a severe and disabling skin disorder that is notoriously difficult to treat. The study, which is led by Profs. Francesca Capon and Catherine Smith, will seek to identify new disease genes and pathogenic pathways through the analysis of large omics datasets. The post-holder will join a well-established multidisciplinary team that has already identified key immune abnormalities contributing to disease onset. As the group is generating larger datasets, the post-holder will undertake the analysis of bulk RNA-seq data and ATAC-seq data, integrating them with existing scRNA-seq profiles. For individuals with a wet-lab background, there will also be scope to undertake follow-up experiments in the College state-of-the-art imaging and flow-cytometry facilities.
Candidates must have a BSc (or MSc) in bioinformatics, or equivalent computational experience. While this is a full-time post, requests for flexible working will be considered.
The selection process will include a panel interview (scheduled for 15 June pm) and a presentation.
Informal enquiries can be sent to Francesca Capon (francesca.capon@kcl.ac.uk)
