About the Role
We are seeking a talented and motivated Postdoctoral Statistical Geneticist to join the

The ongoing projects apply genetic and genomic approaches to identify genes for hypertension, sudden cardiac death and heart failure. Downstream analyses include studies of candidate genes using both “in vitro” and “in vivo” models and application of polygenic risk scores and Mendelian randomisation, approaches that improve our understanding of disease mechanisms. We are also developing enhanced risk prediction models and generating genetically informed new therapeutic targets.
