The Bioinformaticians, who are usually biologists or biochemists with strong programming skills, contribute to the maintenance and development of the databases in the EBI’s Protein and Nucleotide Database Group (PANDA).

The selected candidate will be responsible for the analysis and annotation of sequence data using UNIX-based software tools, the extraction of biological information from scientific literature or databases using high-throughput methods and the development of new analysis and annotation tools. In addition to these activities, the incumbent will contribute to the development of the group’s external services and develop internal and external software specifications.

The Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics is an international research institute with approx. 500 employees, working in the field of medical genomics. A special focus lies on genome analysis of man and other organisms.

The Otto Warburg Junior Research Group of Dr. Sascha Sauer, “Nutrigenomics and Gene Regulation”, is seeking outstanding candidates for several positions:

Postdoctoral Scientist
(TVöD E 13) • OWL 04-18

Ph.D. student
(TVöD E 13/2) • OWL 04-19

The group is focusing on the analysis of molecular interaction of small molecules with gene regulation networks with the aim to understand and model cellular processes related to the therapy of metabolic diseases.

Hi folks,

A position has become available unexpectedly in my lab for a graduate
student to work with me on a project to investigate the role of horizontal
gene transfer in prokaryotes.

The ideal student would either be a first-class graduate computer scientist
with some knowledge of molecular biology or a molecular/evolutionary
biologist with some knowledge and interest in computing.

Background:

Postdoctoral Research Fellow: Gene Function Analysis and Development of Cisgenic Apples with Red Fruit Flesh. 4 years fulltime (40 hours).

Vacancynumber: Inova 01

Organization:
Inova Fruit B.V. is a young company that selects and develops new apple cultivars that fit perfectly in market segments. Inova Fruit B.V. prepares and co-ordinates the market introduction of these cultivars. Inova Fruit B.V. collaborates on molecular breeding of new apple cultivars with the Plant Science Group (PSG) of Wageningen University and Research Centre (WUR).

I've just been sent a link to some MC-GARD workshops and conferences based around Europe looking at various fields of Molecular Biology and Bioinformatics. Funding is also available. Check it out.

The aim of the project is to assist in creating a unified data resource for spectral Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) and structural Protein Data Bank (PDB) data, with enhanced deposition, visualisation and validation tools. The post holder's task will involve working within the Collaborative Computing Project for the NMR community (CCPN) data model framework, the Autodep deposition system and the AstexViewer visualisation tool. Other responsibilities include continuous interaction with the BioMagResBank (BMRB) for data exchange and with the CCPN project for the data storage, as well as in-house analysis of the NMR data.
