You will work within a multidisciplinary team of scientists, clinical fellows, research managers, students, and external collaborators.
Qualifications include an undergraduate degree in Bioinformatics or Statistics and a PhD in a related field. You should have strong knowledge of biostatistics, research methods, and applications.
