Postdoctoral Research Scientist in Severe Infection Genomics and Host Immune Profiling University of Oxford in United Kingdom

PhD Studentship at the University of Oxford in Oxford, England , focused on the double life of E. coli as a benign commensal and a deadly pathogen. The project is part of the COHORT-Microbiome study, in collaboration with the Oxford Vaccine Group and the Ellison Institute of Technology . It is led within a team associated with Prof Susanna Dunachie and aims to understand how E. coli strains colonise and persist in the gut, and how this relates to future invasive infection risk. The student will ...

PhD project at the University of Bath in the Department of Life Sciences on plasmid evolution, antibiotic resistance, bioinformatics, genomics, and structural biology . This GW4 BioMed3 MRC Doctoral Landscape Programme project asks whether incorporating protein structure into plasmid rearrangement-distance models can better explain how plasmids evolve. The work builds on computational tools for plasmid evolution (including DCJ-Indel style models) and will investigate whether there is a consisten...

Mass General Brigham / Brigham and Women’s Hospital is recruiting a Postdoctoral Fellow for the Wohl Lab in Boston, Massachusetts, with close collaboration with the Grad Lab at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. The project focuses on pathogen genomic surveillance , including developing and evaluating genomic sampling strategies, building simulation frameworks for pathogen transmission, analyzing pathogen genomic data, and collaborating with international stakeholders on public health pa...

Funded PhD opportunity at the University of Bristol in the MRC GW4 BioMed Doctoral Training Partnership. This project, supervised by Dr Lavinia Paternoster, focuses on the genetic causes of skin disease using genome-wide association studies (GWAS) , multi-ancestry fine-mapping , multi-omic integration , and large-scale data analysis. The work aims to identify causal variants, effector genes, biological pathways, and therapeutic targets linked to approximately 100 skin conditions. Research areas/...
