Postdoctoral Research Associate.

University of Oxford

Nuffield Department of Orthopaedics, Rheumatology and Musculoskeletal Sciences

Description

We are looking for a Postdoctoral Research Associate to contribute substantially to the laboratory and computational research of the Ancestrally Diverse Musculoskeletal Atlas based at the Botnar Research Centre, University of Oxford. This is a partnership with the Human Cell Atlas and Chan Zuckerberg Initiative. This ground-breaking consortium works across 7 international sites and utilises next generation sequencing to generate a map of healthy muscle, tendon and bone including ancestrally diverse samples from countries including Zimbabwe, The Gambia, India, Turkey, Oman and Argentina.

As postdoctoral research associate you will process human musculoskeletal samples for single nuclei RNA-seq and imaging validation. You will adapt, optimise, and compare existing next generation sequencing and imaging methods. You will help to analyse sequencing data using computational pipelines.

You will also collaborate in the preparation of scientific reports and journal articles, present papers and posters and manage your own academic research and administrative activities. This involves small scale project management, to co-ordinate multiple aspects of work to meet deadlines.

You will hold a PhD or equivalent in a medical or biologically related discipline (or near completion) and have strong laboratory expertise in molecular biology (including gene expression analysis) and methodology development. Experience of programming in high level scripting languages (preferably R) and proven understanding and experience in the fields of genomics, data processing and/or high-throughput data analysis is also essential. Experience with histology, cryo-sectioning and fluorescent imaging, and willingness to take on supervision responsibilities for undergraduate project students is desirable.

This is a full time, fixed-term appointment for 3 years.

The closing date for this position is 12 noon on Friday 22 April 2022. You will be required to upload a supporting statement as part of your online application.
