3 weeks ago


Norwich, Norfolk, United Kingdom Earlham Institute Full time

We are inviting applications for a Postdoctoral Research Scientist to join the Laboratory of Dr Wilfried Haerty at the Earlham Institute, UK.


This role is part of the Institute Strategic Programme Cellular Genomics, a collaborative project bringing together molecular biologists, computational biologists, and computer scientists.


The successful candidate will investigate the implications of ploidy variation on gene and transcript expression during cellular differentiation in both in-vitro and in-vivo models through the analysis of short and long read sequencing single cell data.


To achieve this, the candidate will develop computational pipelines to reproducibly handle both publicly and newly produced single cell data (genome, transcriptome, epigenome) to enable their integrations and interpretation.


The project is led by Dr Wilfried Haerty, and the successful candidate will work closely with groups across EI (Dr Iain Macaulay, Dr Edyta Wojtowicz, Dr Conrad Nieduszynski) and with external collaborators.


At EI, the post holder will have access to cutting-edge high performance computing facilities and expertise.


The salary on appointment will be within the range £36,720 to £39,750 per annum depending on qualifications and experience.


This is a full-time post for a contract of 24 months.


We are committed to being a Disability Confident employer and guarantee to offer an interview to all disabled applicants who meet the essential criteria for this vacancy.
