This project is based in the Department of Cell and Developmental Biology and the Department of Computational and Systems Biology at John Innes Centre.

The Dodd group focuses on how circadian rhythms adapt plants and microorganisms to their fluctuating environments. Circadian rhythms are self-sustaining biological cycles with a period of about 24 h, that provide a biological measure of time. In plants, circadian regulation has key roles in the control of metabolism, physiology and development that are crucial for ecology and agriculture. The project is embedded within and exciting international collaboration with Professor Hiroshi Kudoh from Kyoto University in Japan.

The JIC Informatics team’s mission is to provide excellent support in data science and bioinformatics. We lead or join research projects that involve large datasets, adopting pioneering and novel approaches within bioinformatics and scientific computing.

This project is based in the JIC Department of Cell and Developmental Biology, working closely with Dr Pirita Paajanen in the JIC Department of Computational and Systems Biology, and in collaboration with Professor Hiroshi Kudoh at Kyoto University.

You will have a PhD in Computer Science, Physics, Mathematics, Biology, or a related discipline. You will have in-depth knowledge of computational analysis and management of biological data, and the ability to understand the key features of biological problems that are amenable to computational approaches. The post holder will have demonstrable experience in the successful preparation of scientific publications and experience of working with large-scale real-world datasets.

**Additional information**:
Interviews will be held on 20 June 2024.

We are an equal opportunities employer, actively supporting inclusivity and diversity.
