3y postdoc role in computational evolutionary biology at the University of Glasgow available: The role is based within the Viral Informatics, Biostatistics, and Evolution lab (https://vibelab.co.uk/) led by Dr Liam Brierley, whose mission is to use new computational methodologies to better understand how animal viruses evolve towards infecting andcause disease within new host species, including potential for human pandemics. The project will involve developing innovative supervised machine learning and graph analysis frameworks using genomic characteristics and protein expression to predict likely evolutionary links between host species, tissues,and RNA viruses within a wide range of families, e.g., paramyxoviruses and coronaviruses. This role would suit a PhD holder coming from bioinformatics, quantitative virology, mathematical biology, or computer science. Candidates who have a Masters or equivalent or are working towards a PhD are welcome to apply at Grade 6. The post is funded by the MRC for three years and will be based out of the Centre for Virus Research at the University of Glasgow. Applications are open until 18th Mar 2025.
