[BBC] 3 years PostDoctoral Position at the University of Queensland, Australia

[Marina Naval]

Dear all,

Please find attached a three-year postdoc opportunity at the Institute of
Molecular Bioscience, at the University of Queensland, Australia.

*Primary Purpose of the Position*

The main aim of this position is to develop state-of-the-art multi-omics
approaches to generate new and unprecedented insights into the pathology of
central nervous system (CNS) injury and disease. The work will involve
developing new wet lab techniques, pipelines and bioinformatics platforms
for the analysis of large (multi-) omics data, as well as optimising
workflows to incorporate both custom and publically available data and
analysis algorithms.



*Primary Responsibilities *

   -  Implement and develop spatial omics technologies together with other
   lab members;
   - Develop pipelines and optimised workflow protocols for the analysis
   and visualisation of complex RNAseq and other large omics data;
   - Help others interrogate genomic and RNAseq datasets, generate novel
   insights and testable hypotheses to interrogate the role(s) of specific
   cells and/or biological pathways in CNS injury and disease;
   - Assist with the preparation of manuscripts for peer-reviewed
   publication, and also summarising and visualisation of data for
   presentations at e.g. seminars, conferences and meetings;
   - Apply for relevant funding opportunities to further expand the
   research portfolio;
   - Assist with the training and supervision of research higher degree
   students;
   - Any other duties as reasonably directed by your supervisor.


*The University of Queensland*

UQ ranks in the world’s top universities, as measured by several key
independent ranking, including the CWTS Leiden Ranking (32), the
Performance Ranking of Scientific Papers for World Universities (43), the
US News Best Global Universities Rankings (42), QS World University
Rankings (48), Academic Ranking of World Universities (55), and the Times
Higher Education World University Rankings (69). Excluding the award
component, UQ is now ranked 45th in the world in the ARWU, and is one of
the only two Australian universities to be included in the global top 50.
UQ itself is located in thriving Brisbane, a city consistently ranked as
one of the world’s most vibrant and livable cities.
