Do you want to help us improve human health and understand life on Earth? Make your mark by shaping the future to enable or deliver life-changing science to solve some of humanity’s greatest challenges.

 

The Human Genetics Programme at the Wellcome Sanger Institute is excited to announce the availability of three Postdoctoral Fellowships. These prestigious fellowships offer an unparalleled opportunity to engage in cutting-edge research within an innovative and supportive environment. We seek highly motivated individuals with a passion for genomics and a commitment to advancing human health through scientific research.

Each fellow will lead one of four research projects that have been co-developed by two Principal Investigators (PIs) from either the Institute’s core faculty or PIs from our Health Data Research UK Cambridge Associate Research Programme. As such, fellows will be members of a research group at the Sanger Institute and a second lab at either the Sanger Institute or the University of Cambridge (Department of Public Health and Primary Care). Fellows will thus benefit from the mentorship, support and broad expertise of both teams and their PIs.

The projects span the fields of genetics, genomics and population health. Some projects have a large wet lab component, while others are solely computational. The projects, and the ideal skills required for each of these, are outlined in detail in the accompanying supportive culture with the following staff networks, LGBTQ+, Parents and Carers, Disability and Race Equity to bring people together to share experiences, offer specific support and development opportunities and raise awareness. The networks are also a place for allies to provide support to others.

We want our people to be whoever they want to be because we believe people who bring their best selves to work, do their best work. That’s why we’re committed to creating a truly inclusive culture at Sanger Institute. We will consider all individuals without discrimination and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees, where everyone can thrive.

Our Benefits:

We are proud to deliver an awarding campus-wide employee wellbeing strategy and programme. The importance of good health and adopting a healthier lifestyle and the commitment to reduce work-related stress is strongly acknowledged and recognised at Sanger Institute.

Sanger Institute became a signatory of the International Technician Commitment initiative In March 2018.  The
