Multi-Scale Spatial Omics Platform is a collaboration of several facilities, based at the UMC Utrecht, division LAB, Center for Molecular Medicine (CMM). You will be based in the CMM, and your role will entail a dynamic collaboration with the Sequencing, Mass cytometry, Mass Spectroscopy Imaging facilities and Cell Microscopy Core. 

At CMM we focus on research and development of cutting-edge technologies and perform biomedical research to discover the molecular mechanisms of human diseases. We study the changes in molecules, like genes, transcripts, proteins and metabolites that underlie pathological conditions at the cellular, tissue and organismal level. The highly collaborative nature of our investigators and the use of state-of-the-art technologies enables us to study disease-causing mechanisms at different biological levels, from single molecules to organisms. 

We are seeking a Spatial Data Analysis Scientist to join our dynamic team at the Multi-Scale Spatial Omics Platform (MSSOP). MSSOP provides access to methods for spatial analysis of RNA, protein, metabolite, and lipid distributions in (patient) tissues and disease models such as organoids. 

The successful candidate will play a pivotal role in coordinating the project portfolio of MSSOP, bridging the spatial omics methodologies that differ in scale, spatial resolution, targeted vs. untargeted detection, multiplexing capability, and throughput. This position offers a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of biomedical science, data analysis, imaging, and technology; and develop a competitive career in spatial-omics methods and -data analysis.

• A salary between €3359 and €5292 gross per month (salary scale 10), based on full-time employment (36 hours).
• Year-end bonus of 8.3% and holiday allowance of 8%. 
• Pension insurance with ABP. We take care of approximately 70% of the monthly contribution.
• Access to a variety of online courses through GoodHabitz. 
• The option to select additional employment benefits in exchange for gross salary, such as purchasing a bicycle and memberships.

This recruitment for this position will close upon receipt of sufficient candidates, timely application is therefore recommended.
