Subject: Genome analysis PostDoc in Oslo
Date: 12 Jan 2015 15:11:46 GMT+1

A postdoc position is available in Oslo (Norway) on the development of statistics/machine learning-based genome analysis methodology integrated with the Galaxy platform. The aim is to pioneer the development of sophisticated and streamlined software systems for broad use cases within integrative genomics, where the specification is deliberately somewhat broad in order to allow the visions of candidates to influence the exact direction. The positions are embedded within the Genomic HyperBrowser environment, which includes seven researchers and programmers working primarily on the development of genome analysis functionality, as well as around thirty more loosely coupled collaborators.

Further details on the positions and how to apply are available in the full announcement:

VR applications, young scientists


In the spring of 2015 there will be an opportunity for young scientists,
i.e. everyone with a PhD awarded later than 2008-01-01 (plus extra time for
parental leave etc) to apply for VR grants (see www.vr.se). These grants
can be used to cover up to 75% of the salary of the applicant and finance
some of her/his research. The remaining 25% of the salary have to be paid
by the department. To apply it is necessary to have the support by an
academic institution, such as DBB.

At DBB we only want to recruit scientists that would add to our research
environment and that have a reasonable chance to succeed as independent
scientists given the tough situation of funding today. At DBB we have been
very limited in supporting these applications the last few years and we
cannot guarantee that we will support any applications 2015. Therefore, we
have decided to ask all interested applicants to submit a pre-application
by 2015-01-30 to lena.maler at dbb.su.se. The application should contain (i) a
one page presentation of the planned research (ii) a short cv and (iii)
list of publications. The applicant will be informed by mid February
whether DBB will support the VR application or not.

Yours

Message-ID: <2C81451D-0B89-400E-AC22-B291B977534B@ifi.uio.no>

We are seeking to fill a vacant full-time postdoctoral position for three years. The advent of next-generation sequencing technologies has enabled a rapid identification of alterations in cancer genomes, allowing researchers to investigate large-scale genome events such as chromosomal lesions and copy-number variations, as well as small-scale aberrations represented by point mutations, small insertions and deletions. Several recent studies have implicated the packaging and higher-order organization of the nuclear genome as an important part of tumorigenesis. This encompasses both the accessibility of DNA through chromatin architecture and chromatin modifications, as well as the three-dimensional organization of chromosomes within the nucleus.
 
The successful candidate will work in a team of bioinformaticians to assess the importance of prevailing models of genomic organization to explain mechanistic aspects of somatic mutations and mutation signatures in cancer at different levels of resolution. The project will collaborate with scientists working in close collaboration with The Norwegian Cancer Genomics Consortium (NCGC, cancergenomics.no). The computational group also is developing relevant functionality within a published computational framework termed The Genomic HyperBrowser (hyperbrowser.uio.no)

Developer at GBIF Sweden - Global Biodiversity Information Facility
We are seeking a senior-level full stack developer with Open Source profile at GBIF Sweden.
GBIF is an international project whose activities support increasing the availability of data on the Earth's species. GBIF data are free and available to everyone, but our services are aimed primarily towards supporting research in Biology and Biodiversity Informatics.

The Swedish GBIF node aggregates collection-derived natural history data and species observations from Swedish museums, government agencies, organizations and research centers and deliver them to the global GBIF node in Copenhagen. The secretariat of GBIF Sweden has been the Swedish Natural History Museum in Stockholm since 2003, and is currently administered under Department of Bioinformatics and Genetics in the Research Division.
The primary tasks will be maintaining and improving the data flows from our national biodiversity data repositories to the Swedish and international data aggregation and service portals, gbif.se and gbif.org.

As a full stack developer, you will be also responsible for improving the user experience in the Swedish web portal while further developing portal features and services. In the role as GBIF developer, you will also co-develop and collaborate with other developers in the museum's bioinformatics group. This includes maintaining current interoperability with other systems we manage. Additionally, the work involves many contacts at home institutions for our national data providers but also at GBIF nodes in other countries and at the international GBIF Secretariat in Copenhagen.

To be successful in this position, therefore, you need to be a socially adept and responsive person who is also able to take initiative. We will place great emphasis on social and personal characteristics.

*PhD position at the Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics *
*Reference numbers SU FV-0267.15 Deadline for application: February 23,
2015*





*Ref No. SU FV-0267-15 Project title: Prediction and studies of membrane
protein interactions *Project leader: Arne Elofsson, arne at bioinfo.se,
Homepage: http://bioinfo.se/

Membrane proteins are the gateways to the cells and as such they are of
great importance for the development of drugs. In addition membrane
proteins are quite difficult to handle experimentally, therefore prediction
methods are important to gain information about these protein.  We have
developed many of the leading methods for prediction of membrane protein
structures. For a full list of publication see http://bioinfo.se/papers/ .

The primarily aim of this project is to obtain detailed structural
information about large biological complexes and networks, such as membrane
protein translocases, by integrating different types of genomic sequence
data. The information from a sufficient number of homologous sequences is
often sufficient to predict the fold of soluble globular proteins or
membrane proteins.

Two types of information will primarily be used. First, the identification
of co-evolving residues can be used to predict interacting residue pairs.
Secondly the use of structural homology combined with analysis of
interaction surfaces can be used to identify potentially interacting
proteins. These purely computational methods will then, if needed, be
combined with experimental data from Cryo-EM and other techniques.

A general interest in protein, programming and machine learning methods and
a solid background in bioinformatics, physics or computer science is
suitable for this position.

This position is a part of a European Union Marie Sk?odowska Curie Initial
Training Network named ?protein factory?.  The overall aim of this network
is to develop new protein production systems that can deliver secreted
enzymes and membrane proteins in greater yields, with higher quality and at
lower costs. The network consists of 11 partners from 7 different European
countries and in total 15 PhD students will be recruited. All these
students will participate in several workshops, meetings and courses.  This
provides a unique possibility to form a network of fewllow scientists with
a common research interest.

The position is funded by a European Union Marie Sk?odowska Curie Initial
Training Network. Therefore, potential candidates must not have resided or
carried out their main activity (work, studies, etc.) in Sweden for more
than 12 months in the 3 years immediately prior to the recruitment, and
have no more than 4 years of research experience.

Include a short motivation, a CV (plus diplomas and certificates/date when
you expect to finish your studies), an example of computer code you have
written and the contact details of at least 2 references in your
application.
