Job Details

Under the guidance of Anguraj Sadanandam and Alan Melcher, we are seeking to recruit a Bioinformatician to contribute to The Centre for Immunotherapy of Cancer (CIC). The successful candidate will play a key role in the development and application of state of the art bioinformatics analyses for a diverse range of CIC projects to support cancer research. The post holder will work with multidisciplinary teams and contribute to implementing and performing relevant analyses, interpreting the results in context of the project, and presenting the results to project teams as well as internal and external collaborators. The post holder will be expected to demonstrate proactivity and initiative to identify the most appropriate and effective computational tools and methods to answer the scientific question in each project.
 

About you

The successful candidate must have:

- Master’s degree in Computational Biology, Bioinformatics, Computer Science, or related subject

- Postgraduate experience working in bioinformatics or computational biology in cancer genomics, immunotherapy or related field

Department/Directorate Information

The Centre for Immunotherapy of Cancer (CIC) aims to increase communication between clinicians and scientists with an interest in translational immunotherapy. We are a virtual centre, bringing together staff and students from the ICR and our partner hospital, The Royal Marsden. Data Science and AI With the increasing size and complexity of genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic data sets generated from patient samples and pre-clinical models, bioinformatic tools have become increasingly important for data analysis and deconvolution. Bioinformatic methods of network modelling and integrative data analysis work towards finding molecular patterns that describe active signalling pathways and identifying antigenic determinants that drive tumour immunogenicity, all of which aid in the design of personalized treatments.

 

What we offer

  • A dynamic and supportive research environment
  • Access to state-of-the-art facilities and professional development opportunities
  • Collaboration with leading researchers in the field
  • Competitive salary and pension
