Dear All,
There is a position open for the Genomics Core Deputy Manager at CRI, http://bit.ly/lLxsIU. The closing date is on the 14th of June. Salary is around £30-35k or US$48-55k.
This is a key post in my lab and would be overseeing day-to-day operations of the Illumina sequencing services. The job description is pretty comprehensive. We ran about 1700 libraries last year from over 250 users in four institutes. We have 1x HiSeq and 2x GAIIx plus Illumina and Agilent arrays, Fluidigm, Pyrosequencing, Sanger and real-time PCR services.
Sincerely,
James.

NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...10-30-2026, 06:46 AM -
Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?
Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM
