Applications are invited for a Bioinformatician to work with investigators at the Discovery Research Platform for Cell-Matrix Biology.
The new appointee will bring bioinformatics expertise to experimental design, pathway analysis, interrogation of databases, statistical analysis, data visualization and interpretation. They will work with researchers in the laboratory and Core Facilities to analyse, visualise and interpret acquired data from experiments that may include proteomics, transcriptomics, genomics and single-cell CyTOF, as well as new technologies that arise. The role will require the development of analysis solutions to complex biological problems, using established data-processing pipelines (e.g. for proteomics or image analysis; accessing online databases and repositories), novel coding and statistical analysis (e.g., using Python or R). The Bioinformatician will report to Simon Hubbard and Sarah Woolner and, depending on the experience and performance of the appointee, there will be scope for progression to Senior Bioinformatician over the course of the appointment.
This is a full time appointment starting 1st June 2024, or as soon as possible thereafter, and is for a fixed term until May 2027. Should the appointment prove successful, there is an opportunity for a further 3 years.
Located at The University of Manchester, the Manchester Cell-Matrix Centre is one of eight Discovery Research Platforms recently awarded by the Wellcome Trust. The Discovery Research Platform for Cell-Matrix Biology will address a range of practical, technological, and methodological barriers to understanding how changes in the extracellular matrix leads to tissue failure. We are seeking driven and ambitious individuals to play a pivotal role in overcoming these barriers. Successful candidates will contribute to our bold vision to reprogramme extracellular matrix, which has the potential to lead to innovative new diagnostic tools and treatments for diseases such as cancer and fibrosis. The platform will embrace a Team Science approach and provide an exciting opportunity to work with groups from diverse research areas and collaborate across disciplines.
The School is strongly committed to promoting equality and diversity, including the Athena SWAN charter for gender equality in higher education. The School holds a Silver Award which recognises their good practice in relation to gender; including flexible working arrangements, family-friendly policies, and support to allow staff achieve a good work-life balance.
