The ad below is for a statistician to work on the analysis of data from
large scale genetic studies; this would be a combination of applied
data analysis and methodological development, balance of these varying
to some extent according to the interests and abilities of the
appointed person. Previous knowledge of genetics is not required, but
would obviously be an advantage.
