Manchester, United Kingdom The University of Manchester Full time

We are seeking an enthusiastic and highly motivated Bioinformatician to collaborate with scientists and clinicians to provide knowledge and expertise in the analysis and interpretation of data from translational radiotherapy-related research. One of the goals of the MCRC Radiotherapy Related Research (RRR) group is to personalise radiotherapy (field, dose, fractionation, use of chemotherapy) by integrating tumour, patient and treatment information to optimise radiotherapy delivery for individual patients and improve outcomes over conventional treatments that approach all patients in a similar manner. A significant proportion of the work will focus on developing an improved understanding of the molecular basis of patient response to radiotherapy, and on decoding the human transcriptomes/ genomes/ proteins associated with the response of normal and malignant cells to radiotherapy.

The research involves the analysis of data from cancer patients and clinical samples. The analysis of microarray and next generation sequencing data collected as part of clinical studies will form a part of the research. The post will provide an opportunity to carry out a wide spectrum of research ranging from basic to clinical science. .

What can you expect in return
The University will actively foster a culture of inclusion and diversity and will seek to achieve true equality of opportunity for all members of its community.

What you will get in return:

Fantastic market leading Pension scheme Excellent employee health and wellbeing services including an Employee Assistance Programme Exceptional starting annual leave entitlement, plus bank holidays Additional paid closure over the Christmas period Local and national discounts at a range of major retailers
