Subject: Hayday lab postdoc position

Dear François,

We have an immediate opening for someone with experience in microscopy 
and image analysis. The post is currently advertised as a three-year 
postdoctoral position with option of extension but is also suited for a 
highly qualified, highly numerate research associate.

The project offers extremely exciting opportunities as part of a 
high-throughput immunological phenotyping programme financed by the 
Wellcome Trust and awarded to a multi-centre consortium led by our group 
at King’s College London. The consortium will over the next five years 
conduct a high-throughput immunological phenotyping of approximately 
800-1000 knockout mouse lines generated by the Wellcome Trust Sanger 
Institute (please see attachment for details).

If you are aware of suitable candidates, please encourage them to 
contact us for further information. Please feel free to forward this 
email to people who might be interested or who know a suitable 
candidate, and ideally, please let us know of any good prospects 
(adrian.hayday at kcl.ac.uk <mailto:adrian.hayday at kcl.ac.uk>;

We have an immediate opening for someone with experience in microscopy 
and image analysis. The post is currently advertised as a three---year 
postdoctoral position with option of extension but is also suited for a 
highly qualified, highly numerate research associate.

The project offers extremely exciting opportunities as part of a 
high---throughput immunological phenotyping programme financed by the 
Wellcome Trust and awarded to a multi---centre consortium led by our 
group at King’s College London. The consortium will over the next five 
years conduct a high---throughput immunological phenotyping of 
approximately 800---1000 knockout mouse lines generated by the Wellcome 
Trust Sanger Institute (see advert for details).

More specifically, the project focuses on the epidermal immune 
compartment. As you may appreciate, this is an interesting and 
aesthetically beautiful composition of dendritic T cells and Langerhans 
cells in regularly patterned juxtaposition. Despite the growing interest 
in tissue---associated lymphoid and myeloid compartments, there is 
little understanding of what regulates their normal development, 
homeostasis, and spatial organization. Clearly, the mutant screen offers 
the opportunity to identify key new genes and pathway. We therefore 
require the candidate to set up and implement the confocal assessment of 
the mutant mice. The challenges of this job will be the development of a 
semi--- automated acquisition process and the application / development 
of high--- throughput analysis tools to extract a maximum of information 
from large data sets. Such developments may set an important benchmark 
for others to follow. Added to this, an additional incentive is the 
potential for a successful candidate to take---on the follow---up 
studies of interesting mutants, potentially developing a career 
development trajectory. Technical assistance will be available within 
the team. The job advert with the full job description can be found on 
the KCL website 
(http://www.kcl.ac.uk/depsta/pertra/vacancy/external/pers_detail.php?jobindex=13042).

If you are aware of suitable candidates, please encourage them to

candidate, and ideally, please let us know of any good prospects
