Post-doctoral researcher Bioinformatics
6 maanden geleden
Genomic surveillance of infectious diseases has been a revolutionary public health success and a critical tool in elucidating pathogen transmission, evolution and source tracking. However, exploiting this data to understand the genomic drivers of pathogen success and virulence and using this data predictively remains underdeveloped.
Wat ga je doen?
We have recently received funding to leverage advances in pan-genomics and deep-learning to build predictive models to help understand why certain microbial variants are successful pathogens and what emerging variants to prioritise.
The focus of this research is to be applied to the realms of pandemic preparedness and antimicrobial resistance. Specifically, we aim to build genomic driven classifiers that can identify what genomic changes are predictive for pandemic spread in terms of both the micro-organism and their resistance cargo. There is a critical need to better predict the differential risk that different strain types pose such that proportional interventions that maximise public safety and minimise economic losses are developed.
The project is a collaboration between Utrecht University and national and international partners and you will be a key member of the project team. You will be responsible for:
phylogenetic and phylodynamic and pan-genomic analysis; design and validation of machine learning models for the prediction of spread of antimicrobial resistance.
Wat breng je mee?
You have a PhD degree in the field of bioinformatics or computational sciences. You have experience in analysis of large microbial genomic datasets and design and validation of machine learning models. Metagenomics experience is an advantage. You have proficiency with programming languages e.g. Python/R. You have a proactive attitude. You can work independently but are a team player. You can communicate effectively with people with a variety of backgrounds and expertise. You are flexible and can adapt easily to different work environments. You have a good command of the English language.
Wat bieden wij?
We offer:
a position for one year, with an extension for a period of two years upon successful assessment; a full-time gross salary between €3,226 and €5,090 depending on skills and experience in scale 10 of the Collective Labour Agreement Dutch Universities (CAO); 8% holiday bonus and 8.3% end-of-year bonus; a pension scheme, partially paid parental leave, and flexible employment conditions based on the CAOIn addition to the from the CAO for Dutch Universities, Utrecht University has a number of its own arrangements.
