Do you want to help us improve human health and understand life on Earth? Make your mark by shaping the future to enable or deliver life-changing science to solve some of humanity’s greatest challenges.
We are recruiting a Postdoctoral Fellow specialising in immunology to study the role of immune cells in tissue regeneration. As a model of regeneration, we will use the endometrium, the mucosal layer of the uterus that undergoes cyclical shedding and regeneration in response to fluctuating hormone levels.
This position is fixed-term until 31 August 2028.
About the research:
Immune cells play an active role in regenerative processes, for example by providing growth factors and other signals that support tissue growth. One of the most striking examples of efficient regeneration is the endometrium, which is shed and regenerated every month without scarring. This process is most evident during menstruation, the phase of the menstrual cycle in which the endometrium is shed and rapidly rebuilt. Despite its importance, the causal contribution of immune cells to regeneration, both in general and within the endometrium, remains poorly understood. This gap in knowledge limits our understanding of common gynaecological conditions such as Heavy Menstrual Bleeding (HMB), a debilitating disorder characterised by excessive blood loss.
In this project, we will adopt an integrative, cutting-edge genomics approach to investigate the role of immune cells in endometrial regeneration in both health and disease. We will examine how immune cell function is altered in HMB using advanced genomic profiling applied to both endometrial tissue and menstrual fluid. Deep learning models will be used to predict cellular, molecular, and genetic associations with HMB, enabling the identification of causal pathways, patient stratification, and the development of novel diagnostic tools and therapeutic strategies. A key component of the project is the use of in vitro systems, including organoid–immune cell co-cultures established in the lab, to validate findings and mechanistically dissect the contribution of immune cells to endometrial regeneration.
What you'll be doing:
In this role, you will lead investigations into the role of immune cells in regeneration, with a primary focus on the endometrium. The position is part of a large, collaborative project funded by Wellcome LEAP, which aims to profile menstrual fluid, the microbiome, and endometrial tissue using a range of transcriptomic technologies to identify novel biomarkers and treatments for HMB. You will work with single-cell RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics to enable discovery-driven research, alongside organoid-based models for functional validation. The overarching goal is to define the molecular mechanisms by which immune cells regulate endometrial regeneration in both health and disease.
You will join the Vento-Tormo lab and take scientific leadership in profiling menstrual fluid and endometrial samples from individuals experiencing HMB, as well as in establishing patient-derived in vitro models. Your work will integrate computational analyses of single-cell and spatial genomics data with mechanistic experimentation in vitro. Your responsibilities will include: (1) Interpreting and biologically contextualising complex genomic datasets, with a focus on immune cell populations, (2) Designing and performing functional and mechanistic assays, (3) Presenting findings to academic and clinical collaborators, (4) Contributing to the strategic and scientific direction of the project.

About the role:
We are looking for a motivated Computational Postdoctoral Fellow (PDF) to be responsible for the analysis of our large-scale long-read single-cell transcriptomic studies of inflammatory bowel disease. It is a 3-year fixed term fellowship within the Genomics of Inflammation and Immunity group at the Wellcome Sanger Institute (WSI), headed by Dr. Carl Anderson.
About us:
We are a multidisciplinary team consisting of statistical geneticists, molecular biologists, bioinformaticians, computer scientists, students, and clinicians. We generate and analyse large-scale genetic and genomic datasets to better understand the biological basis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We undertake both computational and wet lab research. This enables us to deploy a variety of approaches at scale (currently whole genome/exome sequencing, single-cell genomics, CRISPR screens and mucosal organoid derivation) to identify novel candidate drug targets and catalyse personalised medicine for IBD.
Embedded within the Human Genetics Programme at the Sanger Institute, we provide a collaborative, supportive and cutting-edge research environment. We have a strong emphasis on personal development and career progression. You will be given time and encouragement to seek personal development opportunities and begin establishing your pathway to independence. We encourage networking and provide many opportunities to showcase your research, both internally and externally. The Human Genetics Operations and Informatics teams provide comprehensive multidisciplinary support to help with everything from sample processing to data analysis pipelines, and assistance with funding applications.
What you'll be doing:
You will use your computational and statistical skills to lead the analysis of one of the largest long-read single-cell RNA-seq studies aimed at elucidating the cellular and molecular mechanisms underpinning isoform usage dysregulation in IBD.
Our recent work showed an under-appreciated role of alternative splicing in immune-mediated diseases (El Garwany et al. 2025, Nature Communications). We showed that alternative splicing significantly contributes to immune-mediated disease risk. However, Next-generation sequencing is not well-suited to study alternative splicing due to short read length. Recent technological advances in long-read transcriptomics have enabled us to investigate isoform usage at an unprecedented scale. To investigate the role of alternative splicing and isoform usage in IBD, we are generating single-cell long-read RNA-seq data from gut biopsies and blood samples ascertained from hundreds of IBD patients and non-IBD controls. Through our close collaboration with PacBio, we have already sequenced around 400 individuals, with more being generated over the next few months. You will use these data to identify expressed isoforms and genetic variants associated with dysregulated isoform usage in different cell types in IBD patients and healthy controls to establish the role of isoform dysregulation in IBD. You will also contribute to our computational pipeline to perform quality control and derive insights about the functional impacts of isoforms. You will form part of a collaborative team of experts in genetics, genomics, immunology and gastroenterology to draw causal insights into disease pathogenesis and drug response.
About you:
You have a background in computational genomics applied to large-scale gene expression data, preferably single cell long-read RNA sequencing. You have both an attention to detail and an ability to place your research in the broader scientific context. You work effectively within a multidisciplinary team while also being able to work independently and manage your time effectively. You enjoy scientific writing and presenting your research. In this role you will work closely together with scientists from the Open Targets...
We are looking for an experienced maintenance person to work from 7.00am to 4.00pm or from 10.00am to 7.00pm, Monday to Friday and all year round.

Chorister Chaperones: Manchester Cathedral
Manchester Cathedral is seeking to appoint two Chorister Chaperones who are to be the principal carers for the Cathedral Choristers when at the Cathedral.
Manchester Cathedral is seeking to appoint two Chorister Chaperones who are to be the principal carers for the Cathedral Choristers when at the Cathedral. The safety, welfare and happiness of our young people is of paramount importance to the Manchester Cathedral Chapter. Therefore, these important roles require individuals with experience in caring for children, who enjoy their company and talking with them and can easily interact on their level. The Chorister Chaperones need to be calm with children and understand how to support children’s wellbeing, offering regular encouragement or guidance when needed.
The ability to communicate well and work flexibly alongside a variety of people is key, as is building professional relationships with the parents and carers of the choristers. The Chorister Chaperones will liaise with the Director of Music in all day-to-day matters regarding the choristers as well as providing safeguarding and pastoral care to the choristers.
As the roles involve attending the services at which the choristers sing, it may particularly suit a choral music enthusiast, as the Chorister Chaperones sit in the Quire near the choristers.
These roles are separated into two working patterns, but could also be combined to create one post.

Aylesbury
Salary: A competitive rate of up to £14.75 per hour
Hours: Minimum of 21 hours per week. we do not offer 20 hour contracts.
Here is your opportunity to start a career in rehabilitation support work. You do not need experience in care or support roles – we provide a full induction and specialist training and coaching.
Working in brain injury rehabilitation is different to other kinds of support work. You’re there to encourage and guide individuals, helping them gain the skills and confidence to live independently.
You will share the journey with these inspiring people as they overcome hurdles, achieve milestones, and reach the goals they’ve set. Many of the people we support only stay for three months before they are ready to move on. You can make a massive difference in that time.
We have full and part-time roles on offer.
Why join us?
Brainkind is a charity that aims to improve the lives of people
with brain injuries in the UK.Our assessment centres, rehabilitation units and hospitals use expert neurorehabilitation to support people to regain the skills they have lost. We treat people with a range of brain injuries – sustained through trauma, illness, substance abuse and more – to recover and meet their personal goals. Our employees are incredibly passionate about the jobs they do – you’ll find a strong team spirit across our services and amazing colleagues who always pull together and look out for each other.
The Role
Located in Aylesbury, Kent House is a specialist residential centre providing continuing rehabilitation and specialist care and support for people with acquired brain injury (ABI). It forms part of the nationwide network of rehabilitation support services provided by Brainkind.
We will train you to provide personalised support to our adult residents. You will follow individual support plans to meet the needs and aspirations of each person. The focus is developing independent living skills: personal hygiene, meal preparation, exercise, leisure activities, socialising – the daily routine of regular life.
It is a really varied job, with all kinds of different activities to organise and participate in – both at Kent House and in the local Aylesbury community: art, crafts, music, sports, gardening, shopping, swimming, and countless others.
You’ll get huge job satisfaction from seeing the people you are supporting do more for themselves and live the life they want to live. If you’re interested in building a career, we’re here to support you all the way on your own journey.
About you
We’re not looking for any kind of specific experience. It is your personality and values that will make you a good fit for the role and our Charity. We can train and develop you to become a great rehabilitation support worker if you:
• have genuine empathy for our residents, with the positivity, patience, and resilience to support them through the difficult times of their rehabilitation
• enjoy teamwork and take pride in getting a job done well alongside your colleagues
• have excellent face to face communication skills and a good standard of literacy
• have good time management skills and the ability to prioritise your own workload.
