Subject: Hayday lab postdoc position

Dear François,

 

We have an immediate opening for someone with experience in microscopy and image analysis. The post is currently advertised as a three-year postdoctoral position with option of extension but is also suited for a highly qualified, highly numerate research associate.

 

The project offers extremely exciting opportunities as part of a high-throughput immunological phenotyping programme financed by the Wellcome Trust and awarded to a multi-centre consortium led by our group at King’s College London. The consortium will over the next five years conduct a high-throughput immunological phenotyping of approximately 800-1000 knockout mouse lines generated by the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute (please see attachment for details).

 

If you are aware of suitable candidates, please encourage them to contact us for further information. Please feel free to forward this email to people who might be interested or who know a suitable candidate, and ideally, please let us know of any good prospects (adrian.hayday@kcl.ac.uk; lucie.abeler-dorner@kcl.ac.uk)

 

Best wishes,

Adrian and Lucie

We have an immediate opening for someone with experience in microscopy and image analysis. The post is currently advertised as a three--‐year postdoctoral position with option of extension but is also suited for a highly qualified, highly numerate research associate.

The project offers extremely exciting opportunities as part of a high--‐throughput immunological phenotyping programme financed by the Wellcome Trust and awarded to a multi--‐centre consortium led by our group at King’s College London. The consortium will over the next five years conduct a high--‐throughput immunological phenotyping of approximately 800--‐1000 knockout mouse lines generated by the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute (see advert for details).

More specifically, the project focuses on the epidermal immune compartment. As you may appreciate, this is an interesting and aesthetically beautiful composition of dendritic T cells and Langerhans cells in regularly patterned juxtaposition. Despite the growing interest in tissue--‐associated lymphoid and myeloid compartments, there is little understanding of what regulates their normal development, homeostasis, and spatial organization. Clearly, the mutant screen offers the opportunity to identify key new genes and pathway. We therefore require the candidate to set up and implement the confocal assessment of the mutant mice. The challenges of this job will be the development of a semi--‐ automated acquisition process and the application / development of high--‐ throughput analysis tools to extract a maximum of information from large data sets. Such developments may set an important benchmark for others to follow. Added to this, an additional incentive is the potential for a successful candidate to take--‐on the follow--‐up studies of interesting mutants, potentially developing a career development trajectory. Technical assistance will be available within the team. The job advert with the full job description can be found on the KCL website (http://www.kcl.ac.uk/depsta/pertra/vacancy/external/pers_detail.php?jobindex=13042).
