Two exciting post-doctoral projects are available via the ESPOD and EBPOD schemes between the European Bioinformatics Institute and respectively the Sanger Institute and the NIHR Cambridge Biomedical Research Centre (BRC). Post-doctoral fellows appointed via these schemes work on projects under the joint supervision of faculty members from EMBL-EBI and the Sanger or BRC as appropriate. Specifically: (a) In collaboration with Mathew Garnet at the Sanger Institute, a project to exploit the potential of combining large-scale drug sensitivity screening platforms with the chemogenomics resources and expertise at the EBI.
