Senior Bioinformatician

4 months ago


Oxford, Oxfordshire, United Kingdom University of Oxford Full time

About the Role


Our Theme's overall vision is to accelerate the development of both laboratory and data-driven diagnostics that are rapid, accurate, pathogen-agnostic and personalised, in order to improve patient management (including avoiding unnecessary or ineffective antibiotics); hospital management, including infection control (reducing nosocomial transmission); and public health and population-level policy-making.

This post is critical to experimental medicine research aiming to exploit genetic sequencing more effectively, through supporting the development of rapid, pathogen agnostic, culture-independent metagenomic diagnostics in combination with a team of wet-laboratory scientists, which could be high-throughput, would allow rapid identification of resistance to antibiotics (or antivirals), predict phenotype from genotype, and identify closely related strains suggestive of transmission/outbreaks (mediated through clonal spread [e.g.

_Staphylococcus capitis_,
_Clostridioides difficile_] and/or horizontal transfer [e.g. multi-drug resistant Enterobacterales]).

The capacity to participate iteratively in the development of workflows and the need to deliver results for real-time diagnosis and infection prevention decision-making means that time-critical delivery is essential to this role.

The post is full time and fixed term for 2 years in the first instance.
