The successful candidate will plan and manage their own research, contribute to graduate student training, participate in seminars and workshops, and collaborate across computational biology, genetics, evolution, genomics, and applied mathematics. The project uses large‑scale comparative genomic resources to study the evolution of gene regulatory elements, with a focus on whether evolutionary constraint propagates between physically interacting genomic elements. Applicants should have completed (or be near completion of) a PhD in molecular evolution, evolutionary genomics, computational biology, functional genomics, bioinformatics, phylogenetics, statistical genetics, statistics, machine learning, or a closely related quantitative field. Candidates must not have resided in the UK for more than 24 months immediately prior to the start date (01 October 2026). The post is funded for four years from the start date, with a salary scale of £37,694–£46,049 per annum. Informal enquiries can be directed to Dr Gamze G‑
