Department/Location: Cambridge Stem Cell Institute (SBS)
We are excited to announce an opportunity for a Research Associate position in Prof. Sarah Teichmann's group at the Cambridge Stem Cell Institute.
Our lab is at the forefront of the Human Cell Atlas (HCA) project, a global initiative that unites thousands of scientists to create a comprehensive reference map of all human cell types and properties. This endeavor aims to deepen our understanding of the fundamental units of life and serve as a foundation for diagnosing, monitoring, and treating various health conditions and diseases. We employ state-of-the-art single-cell genomic technologies to characterize the cellular compositions and states of human tissues in both health and disease.
The Human Cell Atlas is providing unprecedented insights into the identity and function of cells, revealing cellular states with unparalleled resolution and depth. These discoveries not only advance our understanding of human biology but also guide the in vitro engineering of human cells towards specific cellular states.
We are seeking a motivated candidate to carry out bioinformatics analysis for the single molecule proteomics project. The successful candidate will source existing genomic and proteomics data to complement the data obtained from nanometric techniques. There will also be an opportunity to work on other projects and collaborate with the rest of the group. This position is available for a 24-month term.
A PhD computational biology, bioinformatics or related field is required.
Fixed-term: The funds for this post are available for 24 months in the first instance.
This appointment requires a Research Passport application.
