C.I.M.R. Pathology
The Salje lab in the Cambridge Institute for Medical Research is seeking a talented and motivated Computational Biologist to join the team and work on genomic analysis and comparative genomics of Rickettsial bacterial genomes. The lab group investigates the host-pathogen cell biology of Rickettsial diseases with a particular focus on Orientia tsutsugamushi, the causative agent of scrub typhus.
This role will primarily focus on analysing genomic data generated using nanopore sequencing technologies to provide insights into bacterial evolution, diversity, and function.
