    System engineers/bioinformaticians wanted for SciLifeLab Data Centre, Uppsala, Sweden

    SciLifeLab (www.scilifelab.se) is looking for system engineers/bioinformaticians to work on development of systems for whole genome sequencing data. These include systems for data from Nordic reference populations, imputation of genetic data, and secure systems for managing controlled access for research data on human samples. SciLifeLab Data Centre promote following principles of Open Science, with openness, transparency and reproducibility for Swedish research data. This position requires close cooperation and good communication with both researchers, technical and administrative personnel. The work is in close collaboration with international partners.

    This position is placed at SciLifeLab in Uppsala, but in close cooperation with SciLifeLab in Solna. The successful candidate will be working at the SciLifeLab Data Centre, a newly formed unit with responsibility for IT- and data management issues, serving our technology platforms, their users and Swedish researchers in general. Working at the Data Centre, you will be at the core of Sweden's top infrastructure for life sciences and have the opportunity to actively shape how state-of-the-art IT services are integrated in Swedish life science research, and help to maximize the scientific impact of the large amount of research data generated at SciLifeLab.

    Apply here: https://www.uu.se/en/about-uu/join-u...itionId=188503

    Qualifications:

    This job requires a university degree in a relevant subject area. In addition is required:
    • Documented experience from database design and software development
    • Documented experiences in bioinformatics, preferably genomics with whole genome sequencing
    • Ability to document work and code
    • Drive and initiative to support and develop the IT and data management processes for Swedish scientists.
    • Ability to work both individually and in cooperation with personnel in widely different fields
    • Strong skills in English.
    • Personal suitability will be strongly considered for this position.

    Merits:
    • Knowledge or interest in biomedical research and infrastructure
    • Knowledge or interest in hardware- and software systems used in life science research
    • Knowledge in biostatistics and bioinformatic algorithm development
    • Experience from project management
    • Knowledge about IT security and issues around managing sensitive personal data, in particular genetic data
    • Strong skills in Swedish


    Salary: According to individual qualifications

    Start date: As soon as possible

    Form of employment: Permanent position, following six months probationary period

    Extent of employment: 100%

    Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems
    by SEQadmin2



    Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.

    Cancer Drug Resistance: The Lingering Barrier to Rising Survival
    by SEQadmin2



    Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.

    There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...

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