UE08 £45,585 to £54,395 per annum (A revised salary range for this grade of £48,350 to £59,421 is planned to take effect from Spring 2024)
Centre for Inflammation Research
Fixed Term (i.e. temporary) for 22 months
Full-time 35 hours per week
The Opportunity:
Limiting tissue injury caused by neutrophilic inflammation remains a significant challenge in inflammatory lung disease. This post, funded through a Wellcome Discovery award, will provide the successful candidate with the opportunity to lead the analysis and development of neutrophil proteomic technologies to define neutrophil function and phenotype in health and disease states. The post-holder will further develop computational pipelines, integrate proteomics with metabolomics and transcriptional data sets and contribute to manuscripts for publication and future grant applications and be encouraged to develop independent fellowship opportunities.
This post is full-time (35 hours per week), however, we are open to considering part-time or flexible working patterns. We are also open to considering requests for hybrid working (on a non-contractual basis) that combines a mix of remote and regular on-campus working.
Your skills and attributes for success:
PhD in computational biology with a focus on immunology
Experience in working on a project with a team of researchers, and ability to interact effectively with other members of the research team and the PI
Demonstrated skills in organisation, carrying out analysis independently, attention to detail, and time management
Demonstrated troubleshooting skills and successful application of newly learned techniques
