Bioinformatician / Analyst - Plant Bioinformatics
Aberystwyth University -Institute of Biological Environmental and Rural Sciences
Fixed term for 3 years
Grade 7: £31,331 - £36,298
The Institute of Biological, Environmental and Rural Sciences (IBERS) is a world class research, enterprise and education centre at Aberystwyth University. It is an internationally recognised centre of excellence and students' choice for the study of biological, environmental and rural sciences.
This position within the BBSRC-funded Institute Strategic Programmes at IBERS will focus on developing bioinformatics approaches to exploit the potential of new sequencing technologies in the overall context of developing a sustainable bio-based economy for food and fuel security. Working in close collaboration with the IBERS bioinformatics research leaders and team, the focus will be on processing and assembling de novo genome and transcriptome next generation sequencing (NGS) data for ryegrasses, forage legumes, oats and the bioenergy grass, Miscanthus. With the ability to work independently within the overall programme, the post-holder will take the lead in establishing tailored and automated pipelines and developing integrated platforms to access, analyse and visualize sequence, annotation and other datasets. Through having excellent communication skills the post-holder will be able to deliver appropriate training to staff and students in the analysis of NGS data. By establishing and maintaining links with other bioinformaticians and computer scientists within and outside of the University, the post-holder will facilitate the execution of existing and future collaborative work programmes. This post represents an excellent opportunity to join a productive bioinformatics program in a translationally focused innovative research environment.
