We wish to recruit a Data Scientist to join the Cambridge-GSK Translational Immunology Collaboration (CG-TIC), a new partnership between the University of Cambridge and GSK. Focused on kidney and respiratory diseases, the collaboration leverages the world class capabilities of Cambridge University to provide transformational impact for patients, while aligning with GSK R&D strategic priorities.

The Data Scientist will play a pivotal role in the development and deployment of advanced computational pipelines aimed at optimizing data analysis in this critical collaboration. This includes the collection and integration of pseudonymised clinical metadata and genomic experimental data, ensuring rigorous data management and compliance with ethical standards. The successful candidate will leverage the established infrastructures of the University Research Computing Services, including the High-Performance Computing cluster and the Secure Research Computing Platform (SRCP), to design and implement robust analytical frameworks. These pipelines will facilitate real-time data processing and enhance the efficiency of data-driven insights, which are essential for advancing our understanding of kidney and respiratory diseases and translating discoveries into impactful therapeutic strategies.
