    Research Fellow – Computational Cancer Genomics

    We are seeking an enthusiastic, ambitious and creative computational postdoc to join the Secrier lab (https://secrierlab.github.io/misc/join/) at the UCL Genetics Institute on a Wellcome Trust-funded position, to lead an exciting project investigating aspects of genomic instability and gene dosage during cancer progression.

    Duties and responsibilities of the post holder include but are not limited to: undertake research under supervision as a member of the Secrier lab, design, develop and refine computational/statistical methods to analyse and integrate multi-omics data in the context of cancer, develop a good understanding of cancer biology and particularly of cancer genomics/transcriptomics and oesophageal cancer. Individuals with a theoretical background (computer science, maths/stats, bioinformatics) are particularly encouraged to apply.

    The post is funded until 29/02/2020 in the first instance.

    The successful candidate must have a PhD (or be studying towards it) in bioinformatics, computational biology, statistics, mathematics or similar area, be fluent in R, Python, Perl, C++ or other programming language, have a good knowledge of statistics and a strong interest in cancer biology.

    Broad knowledge of bioinformatics methodologies, previous experience with NGS data and experience with cancer genomics and/or transcriptomics data are among desirable criteria.

    cription and person specification can be accessed at the bottom of this page. To apply for the vacancy please click on the ‘Apply Now’ button below.

    Informal enquiries should be addressed to Dr Maria Secrier (email: [email protected]).

    Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
    by SEQadmin2


    I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

    Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...

    From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
    by SEQadmin2


    Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


    The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
