伦敦玛丽女王大学（Queen Mary University of London），又名伦敦大学玛丽王后学院，1887年建立于英国伦敦，得名于英王乔治五世之妻玛丽王后，1915年成为伦敦大学成员、是一所公立综合研究型大学。 在医学、法学、社会科学和工程学界享有声誉。

About the Role

Dr. Benjamin Werner from Barts Cancer Institute in London is seeking two postdoc/ visiting scholar candidates to join his team at Queen Mary University of London to work on the evolutionary dynamics of extra-chromosomal DNA in human cancers. 

The positions are funded for up to four years by the CRUK and NCI Cancer Grand Challenge to work on the evolutionary theory and computational models of extra-chromosomal DNA in human cancers. Extra-chromosomal DNA drives some of the most difficult-to-treat cancers. Yet, little is known about the evolutionary process of ecDNA. This project will develop the mathematical/computational tool-box to describe the evolution of ecDNA and test predictions of these theories in existing and newly generated cancer genomic data. 

The positions will be integrated into a large international network (team eDynamic) that includes leading experimental labs working on ecDNA. 

About You

We are seeking quantitatively-minded researchers with a background in physics, mathematics, computer science or mathematical/computational biology.

The Barts Cancer Institute (BCI) is a Cancer Research UK Centre of Excellence whose work aims to transform the lives of those with and at risk of cancer through innovative research in the laboratory, in patients and in populations. BCI is internationally renowned in many areas of cancer research and it combines ground-breaking basic research with the expertise of clinicians and clinician scientists from the Centre for Experimental Cancer Medicine and the Barts NHS Trust to achieve improvements in cancer patient care. BCI is also a partner in the CRUK City of London Major Centre (together with UCL, King’s and the Francis Crick Institute) which is a Centre of Excellence in Biotherapeutics. BCI is committed in supporting and developing future cancer researchers through its extensive postgraduate training.
