Computational Biologist in Single Cell Genomics
Applications for this vacancy closed on 2 December 2024 at 12:00PM
At the MRC WIMM Centre for Computational Biology (CCB), we work alongside
scientists and clinicians to realise the potential of ‘big data’ in biology by
exploiting complex information to make discoveries that benefit human health.
The CCB encompasses an international team of over 40 computational biologists,
working closely with 500 lab-based scientists and clinicians.
As part of a Wellcome Trust Collaborative award, applications are invited for
a highly motivated individual to lead the analysis of single-cell gene
expression and open chromatin profiling data, investigating transcriptional
regulation during Drosophila Melanogaster brain development.
You will work closely with experimental collaborators within the Centre for
Neural Circuits and Behaviour to answer important questions in developmental
neuroscience. You will lead the analysis of single-cell RNAseq & ATACseq
profiles from hundreds of thousands of neurons, representing the entire fruit
fly midbrain, from flies across development stages, to build a map of neuronal
development and understand how sex-specific neuronal identity emerges from
transcriptional programmes.
With a PhD or MSc in a quantitative discipline (e.g. bioinformatics,
computational biology, physics, statistics, engineering or mathematics), you
will have experience of working in a Linux environment and be proficient in
Python and R. Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, with the
ability to convey concepts to other scientists in different fields of research
are essential. Experience in analysis of single cell gene expression data is
highly desirable.
The position is available fixed-term until 31st March 2026, funded by the
Wellcome Trust.
Applications for this vacancy are to be made online. You will be required to
upload a CV and supporting statement as part of your online application.
**The closing date for this position is noon on 2 December 2024. **
**Interviews will be held in December 2024. **
