Stillingsbeskrivelse:

A temporary position as Senior Engineer is available at the Department of Medical Genetics, Oslo University Hospital.

The Dept. Medical Genetics at Oslo University Hospital is Norway-s largest medical genetics unit. In addition to diagnostic and clinical genetics, the department has a thriving research section with 9 research groups, and runs a national core facility for high throughput sequencing (HTS), the Norwegian Sequencing Centre (NSC). The NSC is a joint venture with the Department of Biosciences at the University of Oslo, and provides services and competence in HTS at a national Level.

The NSC operates the largest instrument park for high throughput sequencing in Norway. At present, we are operating the following technologies:
