[BioC] Jobs: Post-doctoral research in Statistical Genomics, Oxford University

[Chris Holmes]

Department of Statistics, University of Oxford.

One or possibly two postdoctoral positions of up to three years duration are 
available to work on statistical methodology for the analysis of 
high-dimensional data arising from modern experimental technologies in 
genetics, with the aim of identifying and characterizing biomarkers 
(signatures) of human disease risk. The project is part of a multi-national 
EU programme investigating genomic epidemiology; exploring the potential of 
combining information from multiple genomic platforms, including, 
transcriptomics, proteomics and metabonomics. The emphasis of the project is 
on metabolic diseases such as diabetes.

The post(s) provide a unique opportunity to develop key statistical 
methodology in parallel with the EU partners developing the next generation 
of experimental techniques.

Closing Date for applications April 21, 2005.
