The Patrick G Johnston Centre for Cancer Research, School of Medicine, Dentistry & Biomedical Sciences (MDBS) at Queen’s University Belfast, is currently seeking to appoint a Research Fellow.
This US-Ireland project, in collaboration with North Carolina State University and National University of Ireland Galway, considers the potential application of transplantable, recording and monitoring devices in patients with cardiovascular diseases e.g. abdominal aortic aneurysm and ischemic cardiomyopathy. The key objective of this study is to characterise the impact of externally powered devices on the surrounding tissues. In particular, the project will investigate the impact of externally generated and internally focused ultrasound and electric fields on differential cell function at various omics levels. A secondary objective is to develop robust and adaptable bioinformatics analytical pipelines to quality control and process data to facilitate downstream analysis.
The successful candidate must have, and your application should clearly demonstrate that you meet the following criteria:
- Have or be about to obtain a PhD in either Bioinformatics, Maths, Stats or Computing or PhD in Natural Sciences with a significant bioinformatics component.
- Substantial relevant experience to include:
- Experience of processing and analysing high-dimensional omics datasets.
- Experience of curating and analysing clinico-pathological data.
- Experience of working with and integrating data from multiple, diverse sources.
- Experience of presenting statistical results to multi-disciplinary audiences.
