  • Quantitative analysis of these data will be used to understand tumours as complex, dynamic heterocellular ecosystems.
  • Assemble tissue imaging datasets of unprecedented depth and size in both observational studies and clinical trials.
  • Identify spatial phenotypic traits that emerge during disease progression and treatment, and those that drive prognosis and therapeutic response.
Requirements
  • MSc degree in computational biology or equivalent, with machine learning and artificial intelligence background.
  • Previous experience in cancer research and immunology is advantageous but not essential.
  • Strong interest in cancer research and a willingness to contribute to a dynamic team.
