**Who are we looking for?**
Queensland University of Technology (QUT) is seeking a Postdoctoral Research Fellow - Microbial Bioinformatics to join School of Biomedical Sciences, Faculty of Health, Academic Division.
**Real world impact**
QUT is a major Australian university with a global outlook and a 'real world' focus. We are an ambitious and collaborative institution that seeks to equip our students and graduates with the skills they will need in an increasingly disrupted and challenged world.
**About the School of Biomedical Sciences**
The School of Biomedical Sciences provides innovative undergraduate degree programs in Medical Laboratory Science and Biomedical Science. Our Biomedical Science degree pathway also offers undergraduate students the option to enrol in double degrees with Law, Business and Mathematics. Teaching is carried out in contemporary learning spaces and laboratories, building on our reputation for emphasising the acquisition of practical skills as well as theoretical instruction.
Undergraduate students are also encouraged to engage in Work Integrated Learning and Vacation Research programs and gain further early experience in research through our postgraduate Honours program. The School also operates a postgraduate degree program in Diagnostic Genomics and has recently launched a new vertical degree, B. Biomedical Science/Master of Data Analytics. We are actively developing further postgraduate programs that bridge aspiring students to our research programs.
The School’s research program has undergone an extensive reorganisation, resulting in the launch of major Centres focused on the delivery of inter-disciplinary research programs. Our researchers and higher degree research students enjoy world class facilities across our own campus and collaborative research institutes, enabling our close alignment to healthcare, translational opportunities, and industry drivers. Our current areas of research strength include:
- Cancer
- Immunology and Infection Control
- Genomics and Personalised Health
- Microbiome Research
Our research is supported by close inter-Faculty collaboration with other major research strengths including data science, cell and tissue engineering, and biomedical technology.
These research areas contribute to specialty undergraduate teaching and development of a research-informed curriculum in Anatomical Sciences, Physiology, Cell and Molecular Biology, Human Biochemistry, and Infectious Diseases.
**About the Centre for Microbiome Research (CMR)**
The Centre is located within the Translational Research Institute (TRI) - a unique multidisciplinary facility located at the Princess Alexandra hospital with a strong focus on translational research. This positions the team amongst top researchers and clinicians from diverse disciplines such as genomics, bioinformatics, immunology, oncology and gastroenterology, and provides the team with access to state-of-the-art core facilities. The Centre also has a dedicated PC2-certified laboratory fully equipped for molecular biology that includes an in-house white light laser confocal microscope (Leica), a PromethION (Oxford Nanopore Technologies) and access to a NovaSeq 6000 (Illumina). The Centre has a BD FACSAria Fusion fluorescence activated cell sorter with small particle detection and liquid handling robots for single cell genomic and culturing work, and maintains anaerobic culture and quarantine facilities. CMR houses its own high-performance computing resources consisting of >1,000 cores and 9 nodes. The operation of these facilities is supported by professional staff for microscopy, flow cytometry, sequencing and bioinformatics.
**What you need to succeed**
You will also be an active researcher with an exciting and developing research profile that strives to create impact and change and contributes to cutting edge knowledge.
You will demonstrate:
- field (microbial ecology, microbial genomics, bioinformatics).
- Demonstrated experience and knowledge of bioinformatics and coding languages
- Demonstrated ability to work collaboratively within a multi-disciplinary team, along with proven ability to autonomously organise and prioritise tasks and workflow to meet project deadlines.
- High level communication skills, including demonstrated written communication skills and strong interpersonal skills.
- Ability to problem solve, logically plan and coordinate research activities, and critically assess existing literature and methods.
