Join the Future Science Platform team in this exciting 3-year postdoctoral opportunity


CSIRO Early Research Career (CERC) Postdoctoral Fellowships provide opportunities to scientists and engineers who have completed their doctorate and have less than three years of relevant postdoctoral work experience.

These fellowships aim to develop the next generation of future leaders of the innovation system.


CSIRO's Future Science Platforms (FSPs) represent an investment in science that underpins innovation and can help reinvent and create new industries for Australia.

The Advanced Engineering Biology (AEB) FSP was established to investigate the challenges holding engineering biology back from realising its positive impact on the environment, society and industries.

It is a collaborative research effort working across multiple Future Science Platforms, Missions, Business Units, universities, and national and international initiatives and is hosted in CSIRO's Environment business unit.

We are seeking a CERC Fellow to join our team and contribute to the project which aligns with major themes of the

AEB FSP:
Innovative Bioproduction Platforms and Data-

Driven Molecular Design:

focused on the development of digital workflows and tools that greatly reduce the time and resource requirements for the development of new biotechnological solutions.

Genomics is a commonly used tool in this development cycle and requires new innovative workflows and analytical tools. These workflows will dramatically increase our ability to focus future research on the most promising genes and pathways.

Your duties will include:

  • Building methods to streamline and integrate analysis pipelines alongside ongoing CSIRO wide genome assembly efforts, to build higher quality evidence informed annotation that is less reliant on homology.
  • Incorporating validated and predicted function into the annotation pipelines to develop functional annotation as a new standard for genome annotation.
  • Investigating the potential for long read/spatial transcriptomics, high throughput proteomics and epigenetics to develop a functional and regulatory approach to annotation incorporating splicing and regulation.
  • Collaborating closely with the Applied Genomics Initiative in CSIRO, one of the Asia Pacific's largest genomics efforts and collaborators to deliver innovative approaches to annotation from numerous datasets.

Location:

Canberra, ACT

Salary**:
AU$92k - AU$101k plus up to 15.4% superannuation

Tenure:

Specified term of 3 years

Reference:
93915

To be considered you will need:

  • Demonstrated expertise in functional genomics and developing annotation.
  • High level written and oral communication skills with the ability to represent the research team effectively internally and externally, including the presentation of research outcomes at national and international conferences.
