About Us We are a world-class visitor attraction and leading science research centre. We use the Museum's unique collections and our unrivalled expertise to tackle the biggest challenges facing the world today. We care for more than 80 million objects spanning billions of years and welcome more than five million visitors annually and 16 million visits to our website. Today the Museum is more relevant and influential than ever. By attracting people from a range of backgrounds to work for us, we can continue to look at the world with fresh eyes and find new ways of doing things. We employ 900 staff in a variety of roles, all united by our vision of a future where people and planet thrive. We need everyone to have the passion and drive to help us with our mission to create advocates for our planet and inspire millions to care about the natural world. Diversity and inclusion matter to us. Our vision is of a future where both people and the planet thrive. Diversity is one of our core values and we strive to build a workplace where everyone feels a sense of belonging.

We know we have more to do, but we are committed to ensuring that everyone who works at the Museum feels they can thrive and feel valued and respected. About the role Professor Matt Clark ( ) is Merit Researcher and Research Leader in Genomics at the Natural History Museum (NHM). He is an inventor of several genomics technologies. Matt's multi-disciplinary group specialises in combining molecular biology, genetics, and computational biology. Our approach with a strong focus on new technologies, have allowed us to tackle biological problems that were previously seen as intractable. The museum's research expertise, its investment in the latest technologies and the interaction with our research partners (Earlham Institute) offer a rare opportunity to develop fundamental academic science and develop it to be applied commercially. We have recent secured a BBSRC Transformative Research Technology (TRT) grant to develop our new method which combines two disruptive technologies that are revolutionising genetics: CRISPR genome editing and Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) sequencing. The largest commercial market for our approach would be improved screening of CRISPR based human therapeutics, reducing development costs and enabling more genetic diseases to have therapeutics - currently there are 5,000 such untreated diseases with 200 million sufferers. About you We seek a PhD level scientist focusing on developing novel molecular biology and lab processes to develop our technology further (wet lab and bioinformatics), and benchmark it to existing methods. The post holder will have the training and applicable skills to also perform most of the lab work to support this project, with additional training provided.
