Senior Research Fellow / Scientific Officer, Laboratory Medicine

Overview

You will advance molecular and genomic diagnostic capabilities through hands-on development, evaluation, and validation of innovative diagnostic technologies for clinical implementation. Working within a multidisciplinary clinical and research environment, you will support translational research and collaborate with senior scientists, clinicians, and bioinformaticians to evaluate emerging platforms, optimise assays, and support institutional precision medicine workflows.

Roles and Responsibilities

• Assay Development & Validation - Develop, evaluate, optimise and validate novel molecular and genomic diagnostic assays and workflows (across molecular microbiology and human genetics disciplines). This includes benchmarking of new instrumentation, sequencing technologies and bioinformatic software.
• Analyze and troubleshoot molecular and genomic data and optimise assay parameters to ensure robust and reproducible perfor...
