Oxford, Oxfordshire, United Kingdom University of Oxford Full time

We are seeking a skilled professional

to fill a unique role in the Oxford Biomedical Data Science (OBDS) training programme as a Computational Biology/Data Science Trainer. This position offers a chance to play a key part in training biomedical scientists in data science and computational genomics while getting involved in computational biology research and software development.

The MRC WIMM Centre for Computational Biology (CCB) is a hub for scientists and clinicians working together to exploit the potential of 'big data' in biology and make discoveries that benefit human health. The CCB comprises an international team of over 40 computational biologists collaborating closely with 500 lab-based scientists and clinicians.

You will hold an MSc or PhD in a quantitative discipline (e.g., bioinformatics, computational biology, computer science, physics, statistics, engineering, or mathematics), or a biomedical subject with relevant computational experience.

You will have experience and enthusiasm for developing and delivering training in computational biology/data science methods and staying up-to-date with the latest advances in these areas (e.g., machine learning, cloud computing).

Proficiency in working in a Linux/Unix command-line environment and in software development and data analysis in Python and/or R are required.

This fixed-term position is available for 2 years, funded by the OBDS Training Programme.
