About the role
The Data Manager for the Bio-Digital Twin will be responsible for all day-to-day data business and will develop a strategic plan, in dialogue with TRANSFROM TMG and the Bio-digital Twin leads, to develop the Twin into a world-leading high-quality data and tissue resource, which will underpin transformative translational research for men and their family affected by prostate cancer. You will be working with one of the largest and most granular healthcare datasets for prostate cancer in the world. Experience of healthcare data, healthcare data quality issues, health data standards, taxonomies and ontologies are vital to ensure that the value of these data can be realised and used to deliver improvement.
What you would be doing
You will help oversee the translational part of the TRANSFORM clinical trial and will be responsible for all aspects of trial management relating to data collection (in parallel to tissue collections) and processing, in close liaison with the lead investigators for the Bio-Digital Twin. These activities include developing SOPs for data collection, archiving at the Bio-Digital Twin laboratory (Imperial College London), quality assurance, data-generation (e.g. high through-put multiomic sequencing), implementing governance frameworks and auditing to ensure the translational work is conducted to the highest scientific and regulatory standards. In operationalising the National Prostate Cancer Bio-Digital Twin biobank, a focus will be testing technologies developed by academic and commercial partners, and you will oversee rapid clinical validation exercises to established signals of efficacy.
