Cambridge, United Kingdom University of Cambridge Full time

An opportunity has arisen for a talented researcher with an interest in genetic epidemiology and/or causal inference to join Dr Stephen Burgess's research group based at the MRC Biostatistics Unit in Cambridge. The mission statement of the group is "developing statistical methods to use genetic variation to answer clinically important questions about disease aetiology and prevention". The three broad aims of the group are to develop statistical methods, run applied analyses that address important clinical questions, and disseminate methods in the area of Mendelian randomization, defined as the use of genetic variants to investigate causal risk factors for disease outcomes. Depending on the interests and skills of the postholder, the role could focus on any combination of the following: i) embarking on a major methodological project in a major substantive area of relevance to Mendelian randomization; ii) addressing several smaller methodological questions of applied relevance to the practice of Mendelian randomization; iii) leading complex applied analyses. The postholder will be expected to play a major role in the work of the research group, through the conduct of research, introduction of new ideas, dissemination of research results, and the support and training of others. The MRC Biostatistics Unit is situated on the Cambridge Biomedical Campus, one of the world's most vibrant centres of biomedical research, which includes the University of Cambridge's Clinical School, two major hospitals, the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, and the world headquarters of Astra Zeneca. Our focus is to deliver new analytical and computational strategies based on sound statistical principles for the challenging tasks facing biomedicine and public health. The interview date for the role is: To be confirmed The University has a responsibility to ensure that all employees are eligible to live and work in the UK.
