Funding End Date 31 Mar 2028 Hours per week 37 Project Title Diet impact on the gastrointestinal microbiome Months Duration 24 Job Description Main Purpose of the Job Applications are invited for a Research Scientist to join the Laboratory of Dr Hildebrand at the Quadram Institute Bioscience (QIB), Norwich, UK. In this BBSRC-funded position, the impact of plant-based diets on the gut microbiome will be explored in metagenomes, including tracing bacterial strains, reconstructing their genomes and metabolic food-webs in the gastrointestinal ecosystem. This will be used to understand the impact a changing environment (food sources, immune system, invading pathogens) have on ecosystem stability. Questions we will be asking are, for example: -How can food-derived pathogens be effectively prevented from colonizing the gastrointestinal tract? -Does switching to a plant-based diet lead to a destabilised gut ecosystem (or reverse)? -How can the gut microbiome supplement essential micronutrients to the human body? To answer these questions, the postholder will be primarily working with metagenomic data from diet interventions, using machine learning to predict genomes, functions and ecosystem states (similar to previous work, see doi: 10.1038/s5-5, 10.1016/j.chom.2023.05.024, 10.1016/j.cgh.2024.11.006, 10 14396). The work will build on bioinformatic tools available in the group (, ), that will be further refined/ newly developed to enable cutting-edge bioinformatic approaches in the project. Long-term, this research will contribute to developing pre-/pro-biotic strategies to reduce autoinflammatory disease and enable healthy aging in a wide population. In addition, the postholder will be involved in organizing group tasks, such as helping in supervising junior researchers, submitting grants, developing new research programmes and organizing outreach events. Key Relationships The postholder will work closely with other group members and the line manager Dr Falk Hildebrand. Further, close interactions with other QIB groups are expected, as the project will be embedded in core research activities across multiple groups at the Quadram Institute and key partners, such as Earlham and John Innes Institutes, as well as Imperial College.
