The EBI–Sanger Postdoctoral (ESPOD) Programme is a collaborative fellowship scheme linking EMBL-EBI and the Wellcome Sanger Institute on the Wellcome Genome Campus in Hinxton near Cambridge. It supports postdoctoral researchers working across both institutes in projects that deliberately combine experimental wet-lab research with computational dry-lab analysis . Fellows can propose their own research ideas, building a project around one group at each institute, or select from a list of projects ...
