The London Institute of Medical Sciences (LMS) at Hammersmith Hospital is the third directly funded MRC research institute and enjoys close links with its partners at Imperial College and at the Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust. LMS research focuses on strengthening the basic science underpinning our understanding of human diseases and the translation of such high-quality research into a clinical setting. Within the LMS, the Bioinformatics core facility works closely with both research groups and other facilities to meet the bioinformatics requirements of the institute. The post is part of the LMS Bioinformatics core facility, and involves working in a highly collaborative environment with multidisciplinary research groups. The primary responsibilities will be experimental design, establishing of bioinformatics workflows and analysis of genomics and transcriptomics data. This work will be carried out in collaboration with the LMS research groups, and will also involve providing training on bioinformatics techniques within the institute.
