Dear Colleague,



We are looking for a highly motivated postdoc as part of our project
“Compressive Structural Bioinformatics” funded by the US National
Institutes of Health (NIH) Big Data to Knowledge (BD2K) initiative.



For details please see:

http://mmtf.rcsb.org/jobs.html


The Challenge: To enable efficient research on the rapidly growing number
of 3D molecular structures of ever increasing size and complexity. Current
algorithms used in Structural Bioinformatics do not scale well with the
rapid growth in structural data. In this project, we will employ the latest
advances in computer science to develop highly scalable, distributed
parallel algorithms to overcome these limitations.



Qualifications: Ph.D. in one or more of the following research areas

•      Computer Science with a focus on large scale scientific computing

•      Structural Bioinformatics with a focus on new methods development

•      Computational Structural Biology with a focus on improved structure
solution methods



Please forward this email to any graduate student or postdoc who might be
interested in this position.



Best regards,

Peter Rose

Subject: [Bio-X Faculty Affiliates] Feb 8, 2017 due date for Visiting Scholar Fellowships @ Stanford Bio-X - funded by Denmark's Novo Nordisk Foundation

Less than one month left until applications are due on Wednesday, February 8, 2017 for the 3rd round of the Visiting Scholar Fellowships @ Stanford Bio-X in collaboration with the Novo Nordisk Foundation.  Awarded visiting scholars will be fully funded by the Novo Nordisk Foundation, with some funds provided to the hosting Stanford PI to cover research costs.

Background:
The Novo Nordisk Foundation<http://www.novonordiskfonden.dk/en> is one the largest European grant-giving foundations/trust funds focused on life sciences with corporate interests.  In this RFP, Danish citizens who have just recently completed their PhDs are encouraged to apply for a visiting scholar fellowship that, if awarded, would provide the opportunity to conduct interdisciplinary and innovative postdoc-level research for 3 years at Stanford, and 1 year back at their hosting Danish institution.

This Visiting Scholar Fellowship<https://biox.stanford.edu/research/visiting-scholar-fellowships> is a great opportunity facilitated under the Stanford Bio-X community, and will have up to 2 new Danish scholars at Stanford for the Fall of 2017.

Four scholars<https://biox.stanford.edu/get-involved/corporations/corporate-affiliate-projects?field_corporate_affiliate_name_tid=All&field_research_area_target_id=5180&field_award_year_value%5bvalue%5d%5byear%5d=> have already been successfully selected in the last 2 rounds, and they’re a part of the following hosting departments: Radiation Oncology, Molecular & Cellular Physiology, Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences, and Chemical Systems & Biology.

How Danish citizens can apply:
We hope that you as the Stanford Bio-X PI will welcome discussions with any Danish applicant for this fellowship as every applicant requires a recommendation letter of commitment to hosting from a Stanford Bio-X PI, as well as endorsement of his/her research proposal in the application portfolio.  Please also share this fellowship with any Danish colleagues that you feel could benefit from such an opportunity at Stanford.

To learn more about the RFP, please click here<http://novonordiskfonden.dk/en/content/visiting-scholar-fellowships-stanford-bio-x> for the Call.  At the bottom of the Call are the specific instructions<http://novonordiskfonden.dk/sites/default/files/bio-x_2017_information_and_guidelines_0.pdf> that every applicant should review to apply.  Please note: as this is an interdisciplinary fellowship, all selected visiting scholars are required to find at least one other Stanford Bio-X affiliated faculty member to be a co-mentor on their research project 6 months after starting their fellowship at Stanford.

Please don't hesitate to contact Hanwei Li<mailto:lhanwei1 at stanford.edu> if you have any questions.

Best,
Bio-X

Dear Colleague,
 
The application deadline has been extended until 2017-01-27 our open Postdoc
position in RNA Bioinformatics at the Center for non-coding RNA in
Technology and Health (RTH), http://rth.dk, Department of Veterinary and
Animal Sciences, Faculty Health and Medical Sciences at University of
Copenhagen. We are looking for an enthusiastic person to join our team from
1 March 2017 or as soon as possible thereafter. The position will be for one
year with the possibility of extension.
 
Background
The NeuroStem project aims at identifying and manipulating non-coding RNA to
obtain novel functional insight in Alzheimer¹s and Parkinson¹s diseases that
can enable improved treatment. The non-coding RNAs will be extracted from
expression experiments of patient-specific neuronal cells derived from
induced pluripotent stem cells obtained from skin fibroblasts. Further
details can be found at http://neurostem.dk.
 
Specific Job description
The project involves analysis of noncoding and structured RNA and their
correlation of transcriptomic data in regards to neurodegenerative diseases.
The project involves detecting noncoding RNA from computational screens and
transcriptomics data. Relevant methods including those for detecting
structured RNA and RNA-RNA interactions will be developed and incorporated
in the integrated pipelines which also make use of the transcriptomic data.
There will be close synergy to the experimental side in e.g. the set up for
mechanistic experiments to further verify RNA functions in relation to
neurodegeneration.
 
The full posting and online application procedure, can be found on:
http://employment.ku.dk/faculty/?show=875995. The application deadline is:
2017-01-12

Our research/The group

The project will be done in the lab of Dr. Konstantin Khodosevich at University of Copenhagen. Our lab is interested in brain development and how developmental mechanisms could be employed in brain regeneration. In particular, we are interested in neuronal differentiation and maturation during brain development in terms of gene expression, functional properties and connectivity.

The research project
The hired postdoc will work mainly on single cell and bulk transcriptomics analysis of neurons during brain development in normal and disordered human brains and in mouse models. The project will be conducted in collaboration with the lab of Dr. Peter Kharchenko, Department of Biomedical Informatics, Harvard Medical School. Thus, the hired postdoc will work in close contact with experts in analysis of single cell transcriptomics and will be expected to stay at Harvard for a part of the project (duration of stay(s) is by agreement).

Start: Preferably from the 1st of March 2017 or after agreement.
Duration: 3 years with possible prolongation for 1 more year

*FIMM-EMBL International PhD program now accepting applications*

In collaboration with the Nordic EMBL Partnership in Molecular Medicine,
FIMM announces the opening of the 2017 call for applications for Doctoral
Students in Molecular Medicine and Bioinformatics as part of the
FIMM-EMBL International
PhD recruitment and training program
<https://www.fimm.fi/en/training/doctoral-training/fimm-embl-international-phd>.
In this program, outstanding doctoral students are recruited to
the institute-level rotation program where they will work with two to
three different research groups during a six to nine month period prior to
matching to a research group in which they remain for their doctoral
studies. The program provides an exciting opportunity to explore different
research areas and working environments as well as to learn a variety
of science and technologies, making connections within and beyond the
institute.

We hope that you will share these call announcements with your local,
national, and international networks, as relevant. The detailed call
announcement can be found on the FIMM Open Positions
<https://www.fimm.fi/en/open-positions>page. The deadline for applications
is 9 February 2017, and application instructions are available within the
announcement.

	related Organisms - RTH, University of Copenhagen
Message-ID: <000f01d277de$88b90e80$9a2b2b80$@rth.dk>

Dear Colleague,

 

Center for non-coding RNA in Technology and Health (RTH), http://rth.dk,
Department of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, Faculty Health and Medical
Sciences at University of Copenhagen has an open PhD fellowship in RNA
Bioinformatics in Bacillus and related Organisms. We are looking for an
enthusiastic person to join our team for three years starting 1st March 2017
or as soon as possible thereafter. You will be a hardworking team player and
a key person in the project group essential for obtaining successful
results. The application deadline is: 2017-02-18

 

Background

Cell factories are based on organisms, which have been carefully optimized
to produce protein-based products such as enzymes and pharmaceutical
proteins with the highest possible yield. However, current technology is
saturated with respect to yield improvement although the theoretical maximum
has not been reached yet. Within the NextProd project, the goal is to
improve the yield by manipulating ncRNAs. See more at http://nextprod.dk.

 

Specific Job description

Comprehensive annotation for noncoding and structured RNA on the bacillus
gene is to be made from transcriptome data as well as from genomic data. In
addition the include RNA interaction predictions and data when relevant.
Pipeline that encompass known tools will be made. The pipeline will further
include developing tools for integrating RNA structure probing data in the
RNA structure annotation. Furthermore, the work will involve transcriptome
and expression analyses. ncRNA RNA annotation and transcriptome analysis.
