Estimada comunidad, Reenvío oferta de postdoc en Cambridge. Saludos, Pablo ---------- Forwarded message --------- De: Jenny Molloy via Reclone.org <noreply@forum.reclone.org> Date: dom, 16 feb 2025 a las 9:46 Subject: [Reclone.org] [Opportunities] Job Opportunity: RA/Postdoc for ARTIC Sequencing Project at University of Cambridge [deadline 23 Feb] To: <pespejo@mi.unc.edu.ar> Jenny Molloy <https://forum.reclone.org/u/jenny_molloy> jenny_molloy Reagent Sharer 16 February Hi All Professor Ian Goodfellow and I are hiring a postdocs to work on open source sequencing protocols suitable for outbreak investigations and pathogen surveillance, especially suited to use in low- and middle-income countries. This is in collaboration with the ARTIC network and ideally for someone with strong dry and wet lab skills in NGS. There is another part of the project developing open reagents for NGS, and this postdoc would collaborate closely with that one [image: :slight_smile:] For informal enquiries, get in touch on jcm80@cam.ac.uk Jenny ------------------------------ *More info here: Research Assistant/Postdoctoral Research Associate - ARTIC Sequencing Project - Job Opportunities - University of Cambridge <https://www.jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/50170/>* The University of Cambridge is seeking a highly motivated Research Assistant or Postdoctoral Research Associate to join the laboratories of Professor Ian Goodfellow and Dr Jenny Molloy on an exciting Wellcome Trust funded project focused on putting genomic surveillance at the heart of outbreak response. The ARTIC Network is a global initiative aimed at enhancing pathogen detection and outbreak response through real-time genome sequencing. This role focuses on developing and validating sequencing protocols for infectious disease surveillance, particularly in resource-limited environments. *Key Responsibilities:* - Design, optimize, and implement sequencing protocols suitable for outbreak investigations and pathogen surveillance. - Develop and produce training materials to support the deployment of sequencing methodologies. - Conduct field testing of sequencing workflows in collaboration with international partners. - Organize and deliver hands-on training workshops to support capacity building in genomic surveillance. - Contribute to open-access dissemination of methodologies, including protocol development and bioinformatics workflows. - Work collaboratively within the ARTIC Network, engaging with global public health and research organizations. *Essential Requirements:* - A PhD (or equivalent experience) in molecular biology, virology, genomics, bioinformatics, or a related field. - Experience in next-generation sequencing (NGS), particularly amplicon-based or metagenomic approaches. - Strong molecular biology skills, including PCR, library preparation, and nucleic acid extraction. - Experience in training or capacity-building initiatives, preferably in low-resource settings. - Excellent organizational and communication skills, with the ability to work effectively in international, multidisciplinary teams. *Desirable Skills:* - Experience in developing field-adapted sequencing protocols. - Familiarity with bioinformatics tools and pipelines for pathogen genomics. - Previous involvement in outbreak response or infectious disease surveillance projects. - Willingness to travel for collaborative visits and training workshops. This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to real-world infectious disease outbreak response and genomic surveillance efforts, ensuring equitable access to cutting-edge sequencing technologies. ------------------------------ Visit Topic <https://forum.reclone.org/t/job-opportunity-ra-postdoc-for-artic-sequencing-...> or reply to this email to respond.
