The DIL https://www-gene.cimr.cam.ac.uk has been at the forefront of recent international success in discovering the genetic variants associated with type 1 diabetes and their function. We are now working to understand the mechanism through which genetic variation can influence disease risk and moving towards intervention trials. This requires careful statistical experimental design and analysis of a diverse range of data, including gene expression and cellular phenotype data.
We require an ambitious and motivated post doctoral statistician to join our statistics group. The ideal candidate will have a PhD in statistics, excellent statistical programming skills, and an ability to communicate and present results both to other statisticians and scientists. Knowledge of genetics or type 1 diabetes is less important than an interest in applying the innovative statistics we have found necessary when dealing with data generated by rapidly developing technologies, in order to answer questions of importance to biology and health.
Applications including a CV and completed Form CHRIS/6 Parts 1 and 3 only - available at http://www.admin.cam.ac.uk/offices/hr/forms/chris6/should be sent to Ms Jenny Newton, Cambridge Institute for Medical Research, Wellcome Trust/MRC Building, Cambridge, CB2 0XY.
