    Postdoc Position At The Methodist Hospital Research Institute

    Department of Systems Medicine And Bioengineering (SMAB) at The Methodist Hospital Research Institute seeks an individual to support Next Generation Sequencing analysis and software development for genomics research.

    SMAB is well funded by NIH/NCI and CPRIT. More information please refer to the website: http://www.methodisthealth.com/smb

    Responsibilities:
    • Testing and understanding of the established NGS sequencing pipelines, such as RNA-Seq pipeline and Deep-sequencing mutation pipeline;
    • Providing support for the NGS analysis of whole SMAB group;
    • Understanding of the algorithms used in the standard software and building new pipelines;
    • Working with the modeling persons to develop software interfaces for their developed algorithms.

    Advantages of this position: The candidate will work closely with a bioinformatics modeling person (team leader) and biologists (collaborators), who has the opportunities to fully understand the core algorithms of the software and the related biological knowledge.

    Requirements: Master or Ph.D. degree in computer science, or mathematics, or physics. The candidates with sequencing data analysis experience will be preferred.

    Minimum Job Experience Required: No. New graduated or fresh postdoc candidates are also welcomed.

    Skills needed
    : Strong programming skills
    1.Rich experience with Unix/Linux; clustering computing; multi-processing/threading computing;
    2.Strong skills in at least one of text processing languages (Python, Perl/Rudy, Java), one of software development languages (C, C++, C#), one of web/database software (PHP/MySQL, ASP/SQL), and R.
    3.Open-minded and good communication skills. Motivated to learn new things. Good spoken and written skills.

    Apply: Interested applicants please submit their CVs with the names and emails of three references to Guangxu Jin ([email protected] ) with title – “Postdoc Application for Sequencing Analysis and Software Development”.

    Reply to Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing

    Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.

    Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
    by SEQadmin2


    I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

    Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...
