Bioinformatician or Computational biologist (Position 3): Dr. Yiliang Ding Lab in United Kingdom
Applicants are invited for a Bioinformatician or Computational biologist in the group of Dr. Yiliang Ding in the Department of Cell and Developmental Biology to study the role of RNA structure in the post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. The successful candidates will join a team at JIC working on the Big Data Mining of the genome-wide in vivo RNA structure study. They will perform deep sequencing data analysis and feature extraction from large-scale RNA structure transcriptome dataset. They will be highly involved in the novel algorithmic/mathematical method development. They will also establish novel bioinformatics analysis pipelines for newly collected transcriptome data. The details of the group can be found at https://www.jic.ac.uk/scientists/yiliang-ding/.
The successful applicant will have an excellent Computer Science, Applied Mathematics, or Bioinformatics background. Extensive experience in genomic data analysis and data mining are desirable but not essential.
The John Innes Centre is a world-class institute and is looking to appoint an exceptional and highly motivated candidate who has, or expects to soon receive a PhD in Computer Science or Applied mathematics or Bioinformatics. We will be providing the job-holder with opportunities to develop their skills and knowledge by excellent training opportunities in the fields of Big Data Mining and RNA biology.
Salary on appointment will be within the range £29,500 to £36,060 per annum depending on qualifications, skills and experience. This post is for a period of 3 years in the first instance.
