Join one of the country's leading groups working in infectious diseases and pathogen genomics
The Modernising Medical Microbiology (MMM) consortium at the University of Oxford is amongst the country's foremost groups working in infectious diseases in the UK, aiming to improve diagnostics and fight antimicrobial resistance. We undertake large-scale epidemiological studies of electronic health records data and link this to data from pathogen sequencing, using a diverse range of sequencing technologies.
We are seeking to recruit an enthusiastic Masters graduate with a background in mathematics, statistics or medical statistics to join our group from September-October 2022, who is interested in training ?on-the-job? to build a prosperous career as a medical statistician.

this function will include practical on-the-job training working within the friendly multi-disciplinary group made up of around 30 scientists with skills in biostatistics, epidemiology, infectious diseases, microbiology, bioinformatics, and molecular biology, providing opportunities for skills and career development, both in terms of medical statistics and more broadly in terms of research careers. There will be opportunities to attend seminars at the University of Oxford to gain broader exposure to genetic research, and to complete other training depending on individual needs and interests.
The prosperous candidate will have an excellent academic record, having achieved a first or upper second class degree in a numerate discipline (e.g. mathematics or mathematics and statistics, computer science, biology with a quantitative focus, or another quantitative subject), and having achieved or being on track to achieve a Masters in mathematics, statistics or medical statistics.
They should have an enthusiastic hard-working approach, be keen to continue further formal study and to develop new skills. They should have good communication skills, and the capability to prioritise and work to deadlines.
