Bioinformatician

Full Time - 35 hours per week.

Fixed Term Contract - Temporary

The Opportunity:

We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated bioinformatician to lead and support data analysis in single-cell and spatial transcriptomics. The successful candidate will lead the analysis of both existing and upcoming datasets, spanning a diverse range of models—including highly regenerative species such as the spiny mouse, and human ageing datasets, including those from unique contexts like NASA's spaceflight studies.

This post will involve analysis of data generated using a range of cutting-edge single cell genomic approaches including single cell RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics. The ideal candidate will not only use established analysis algorithms in the field, but will also help develop new approaches to tackle the novel types of data these projects will generate.

This post is full-time (35 hours per week). We are open to considering requests for hybrid working (on a non-contractual basis) that combines a mix of remote and regular on-campus working.

The salary for this post is £41,064 to £48,822 per annum.

Your skills and attributes for success:

• A PhD submitted/examined or equivalent professional qualification in computational biology, computer science or a related discipline
• Strong programming skills and experience in bioinformatics workflows- Proven experience analysing scRNA-seq and spatial transcriptomics data
• Strong planning and organising skills with ability to work independently as well as collaboratively in a multidisciplinary team
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills with ability to build rapport with colleagues and collaborators.
