The role We invite applications for a Postdoctoral Research Assistant to work within the multidisciplinary GOPRECISE colorectal precancer team. This is a fixed term position until 31 December 2027, funded by GlaxoSmithKline (GSK). The work will be jointly supervised by Professor Simon Leedham (NDM), Professor Helen Byrne (Mathematical Institute, MI), Dr Joshua Bull (MI) and Dr Eoghan Mulholland (NDM). GlaxoSmithKline and Oxford University (GO) launched the PRECISE Alliance (Pre-Cancer Biology and Immunoprevention) in 2024, with the aim of conducting deep exploration of cancer precursors (precancers) to identify their molecular vulnerabilities and developing methods to intercept them. The alliance is directed by Professor Sarah Blagden. Within Oxford, the alliance spans multiple departments and brings together expertise in basic science (including spatial biology), immunology (including machine learning, bioinformatics, preclinical validation) and clinical development (including trial design, delivery and regulatory approval) as well as community engagement. This truly multi-disciplinary initiative aims to transform cancer by actively preventing its development, initially in people at highest risk of the disease and later in the wider population. This post is within the colorectal precancer theme which is jointly led by Simon Leedham and David Church. You will work as part of the Applied Spatial Biology Oxford group, a large multidisciplinary team in which experimentalists and clinicians work closely with mathematicians and computational biologists to identify key features of spatial datasets.

Your work will establish new antigen markers of cancer that could be targeted with cancer vaccines. The generation of spatial data in biology has been transformed by multiplex imaging and spatial-omics technologies, such as single cell spatial transcriptomics. These approaches permit detailed mapping of phenotypic information about individual cells and their spatial locations within tissue sections. You will use MuSpAn, a Python toolbox for multiscale analysis of spatial data created by our group, to develop pipelines for high-throughput data analysis of spatial transcriptomics images (www.muspan.co.uk).

The role We invite applications for a Postdoctoral Research Assistant to work within the multidisciplinary GOPRECISE colorectal precancer team. This is a fixed term position until 31 December 2027, funded by GlaxoSmithKline (GSK). The work will be jointly supervised by Professor Simon Leedham (NDM), Professor Helen Byrne (Mathematical Institute, MI), Dr Joshua Bull (MI) and Dr Eoghan Mulholland (NDM). GlaxoSmithKline and Oxford University (GO) launched the PRECISE Alliance (Pre-Cancer Biology and Immunoprevention) in 2024, with the aim of conducting deep exploration of cancer precursors (precancers) to identify their molecular vulnerabilities and developing methods to intercept them. The alliance is directed by Professor Sarah Blagden. Within Oxford, the alliance spans multiple departments and brings together expertise in basic science (including spatial biology), immunology (including machine learning, bioinformatics, preclinical validation) and clinical development (including trial design, delivery and regulatory approval) as well as community engagement. This truly multi-disciplinary initiative aims to transform cancer by actively preventing its development, initially in people at highest risk of the disease and later in the wider population. This post is within the colorectal precancer theme which is jointly led by Simon Leedham and David Church. You will work as part of the Applied Spatial Biology Oxford group, a large multidisciplinary team of mathematicians, computational biologists, experimentalists and clinicians, and in collaboration with the research groups of Leedham and Byrne and the GO-PRECISE team. You will be responsible for developing and using cutting-edge mathematical methods to describe the spatial characteristics and cellular interactions that characterise colorectal precancer, identifying novel spatial biomarkers from spatial transcriptomics data, and exploring neoantigens or therapeutic targets that could be used for novel interception strategies. The generation of spatial data in biology has been transformed by multiplex imaging and spatial-omics technologies, such as single cell spatial transcriptomics. These approaches permit detailed mapping of phenotypic information about individual cells and their spatial locations within tissue sections. To aid in mathematical analysis of spatial data, you will use MuSpAn, a Python toolbox for multiscale analysis of spatial data which includes techniques drawn from spatial statistics, topological data analysis and networks (www.muspan.co.uk), to develop pipelines for high-throughput data analysis of spatial transcriptomics imaging. Your research will involve the theoretical development and practical application of new mathematical methods which expand this toolbox, using a new precancer dataset. 1 Responsibilities You will: • • • • • • • • • • Manage your own academic research and administrative activities. Adapt existing mathematical and statistical methods for analysis of high-dimensional imaging data, and develop new ones.
