The focus of the hosting group is developing novel metagenomic technologies and understanding the population genetics of bacteria. The Norwich Research Park hosts has the largest concentration of microbial research groups in the UK, the Quadram Institute being entirely focused on gut microbial research, while the Earlham Institute is developing bioinformatic and sequencing technologies. The candidates will have access to resources at both institutes including state of the art sequencing & microbiology technologies and one of the largest compute clusters in the UK.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Thank you for your time,<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Bahnschrift",sans-serif;color:#C55A11'>Falk Hildebrand<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#F4B183'>PI Quadram / Earlham Institute<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#F4B183'>Ext.: 5359 (QIB), 2629 (EI), +44 1603 255359<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#F4B183'>Norwich Research Park<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.falk.science%2F&data=04%7C01%7Cl.lehtovirta-morley%40uea.ac.uk%7Cd30843f167c24e90c92508d8d9693ff1%7Cc65f8795ba3d43518a070865e5d8f090%7C0%7C0%7C637498393362444980%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=2KZqa%2Fbsem%2FoYENbxzw3nFWJFPoiBD61jevmbl8OYsc%3D&reserved=0"><span style='color:#F4B183'>www.falk.science</span></a><span style='color:#F4B183'> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
