Supply of a PATH-SAFE Fellowship
This sits in the upper-middle of the Research & Development band — a substantial contract for the sector. Based on 20,405 valued Research & Development tenders in our corpus.
As part of a major cross-government consortium, the FSA will be leading a new Shared Outcomes Fund (SOF) project, called PATH-SAFE (Pathogen Surveillance in Food, Agriculture and the Environment), which aims to harness the power of genomic technology to identify and track foodborne pathogens and antimicrobial resistant organisms through the agrifood system and environment.
This programme will build accessible datasets on AMR and antimicrobials in the environment, and a national database to enable 'user-friendly' analysis, storage and sharing of pathogen whole-genome data and associated metadata.
It will also explore the development of novel remote sampling and diagnostic approaches, and their applicability for microbial surveillance.
Through this programme, we are bringing together partners from academia, government and industry to produce a world-leading pathogen surveillance system.
We are looking for a talented scientist, in the field of microbial genomics and/or bioinformatics (or related disciplines) to lead on the scientific delivery of this programme.
