Senior Research Associate in Genetic and/or Molecular Epidemiology/Population Health Data Science - Bristol, United Kingdom - University of Bristol
Description
The role
We are seeking an enthusiastic postdoctoral researcher with experience in genetic/molecular epidemiology to join the MRC Integrative Epidemiology Unit (MRC IEU) at the University of Bristol.
The post holder will work with research teams worldwide as part of the MRC funded Diverse Epigenetic Epidemiology Partnership (DEEP) study. The postholder will analyse genome-wide DNA methylation and genetic datasets with the aim of determining causal relationships between DNA methylation and complex traits in different ancestries.
You will be joining a world-class research team at a leading institution. The molecular epidemiology group of the MRC IEU is a dynamic group with a strong portfolio of grant-funded projects. You will be encouraged to contribute your own ideas, take responsibility for discrete project elements and you will be keenly supported in achieving your career development goals.
The MRC IEU research environment is truly interdisciplinary and highly collaborative. The MRC IEU has expertise spanning methodological, applied and translational research across diverse areas such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, perinatal health and mental health.
This role is based in Oakfield House, Clifton, Bristol and there is an operational requirement to work on-site for a proportion of the working week. If desired and with suitable arrangements in place, it is possible to fulfil part of the role remotely. Funding is available until 9/3/2028.
What will you be doing?
You will work on the development and application of new approaches (interaction methylation QTLs, non-disclosive methods) to capture genetic, environmental and ancestry related differences in DNA methylation variation across our cohort network. You will build an open-source multi-ancestry mQTL analysis pipeline and data resource for the academic community. To identify potential target mechanisms, you will use Mendelian Randomization to determine which associations have causal evidence. The role will involve statistical analysis of ancestrally diverse datasets, writing scientific papers within a collaborative team, presenting data at conferences and working collaboratively within an international network of partners.
You should apply if
You have:
