Offer Description
Context And Mission
The Life Sciences Department from the Barcelona Supercomputing Center is establishing a new team on Health Data Research within the Life Sciences Department that will collaborate closely with the INB/ELIXIR-ES unit. The Spanish National Bioinformatics Institute (INB) is the major bioinformatics platform in Spain, and the Spanish representative in the European bioinformatics infrastructure ELIXIR. INB is fully oriented to complete a solid integration with International Bioinformatics and Health Research Data infrastructures, including the ELIXIR consortium.
This new team has its focus on the massive amount of health data available for research in the last years and the recent efforts at national and European levels to tap on those data to benefit patients. Using such data helps scientists to understand diseases and health conditions better and provides new ways of identifying patients at higher risk. It also helps to prevent illness and to provide better treatments. This, in turn, improves the health services' efficiency, optimising their resources where they matter the most.
The selected candidate will work on the acquisition, normalisation and standardisation of Health Research Data, and will collaborate with the rest of the Health Research Data team in analysing and understanding data sources, participating in the design, and providing insights and guidance on database technologies, data modelling and data publication under FAIR best practices of biomedical research relevant datasets, working in a highly sophisticated HPC environment. The candidate will have access to state-of-the-art systems and computational infrastructures and establish collaborations with experts in different areas both at international and local levels.
Female candidates are especially encouraged to apply.
