📣 The Whelan lab is hiring a bioinformatics postdoc 📣 Together with @fabricejpierre.bsky.social, we are offering a 1-year bioinformatic PDRA position in comparative genomics of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. To find out more please visit whelanlab.co.uk/contact/. Applications close 3 April 2026!

Research Associate in Microbial Genomics:Manchester

This postdoctoral research position is part of a Cystic Fibrosis Canada Early Career Investigator Award funded for 3-years led by Dr. Fabrice Jean-Pierre and Dr. Fiona Whelan. The aim of this project is to identify the genetic changes that arise in the Pseudomonas aeruginosa genome following perturbations – such as antibiotic treatment – in an in vitro system. The PDRA will use a large dataset of P. aeruginosa genomes and experimental metadata to predict key mutationsto the organism.

Had a great time at the Computational Symposium- such a valuable opportunity to connect with colleagues, hear about exciting projects, and share progress on my master’s research! Presenting my work on the Pyrenean Lake microbiome has been invaluable for gathering feedback and ideas for my analysis 🙂

I have received the Accreditation Top Project Award from the Royal Society of Biology! This is for my BSC Hons dissertation at the University of Nottingham, where I investigated the role of RNA-Binding proteins in Arabidopsis Thaliana. A big thank you to my supervisor Rupert Fray and the lab!
