  • PhD Thesis in Bioinformatics (Opathy Project Marie Curie ITN)

    We currently have an Early Stage Researcher (ESR) position for a PhD Thesis available for 3 years of duration in the core bioinformatic team of Biotechvana.

    The Thesis project entitled "Integrative genomics/proteomics of yeast infections" belongs to the H2020 Marie Curie ETN Project "From Omics to Patient: Improving Diagnostics of Pathogenic Yeasts (OPATHY)" and will be supervised by Dr Carlos Llorens (Biotechvana), and Dr Toni Gabaldon (Centre for Genomic Regulation). The main objetive for this particular ESR project consists of developing the computational infrastructure for the integrative analysis of disparate highthroughput methodologies (i.e. genomics and proteomics). This includes the development of a database (OPATHY Database) and different bioinformatics tools and pipelines for storing and analyzing relevant omicS data and metadata to enable data-driven discoveries of new biomarkers of yeast infections by mapping transcriptomics and/or proteomics data. The ESR will also BE enroled in bioinformatic tasks related with the analysis of data.

    Applicants should hold a Master's degree (or equivalent) in Bioinformatics, Computational Sciences, Physics, or Biological Sciences.The ESR candidate must have demonstrated programming skills in Php and previous experience in development of SQL databases, in particular MySQL and Wikis.Experience in other programming/scripting languages, Particularly Python or JAva would be an advantage, as would also be previous knowledge of molecular biology and/or NGS analysis. The ESR should be comfortable developing software in a primarily Unix-based environment, and be familiar with development tools such as CVS.We are looking for highly motivated PhD candidate with good communication and interpersonal skills. Furthermore, candidates should demonstrate solid problem solving skills, excellent attention to detail, and a desire to work in an international environment. Good English language skills are a requirement.

    More details, and information on how to apply, please visit the OPATHY webpage (http://www.opathy.eu/content/application-procedure) or contact Dr Carlos Llorens at Biotechvana ( [email protected]) or Toni Gabaldon ([email protected]) at CRG.

    For those of you guys that contacted me personally wondering about the position,
    Our consortium not only offers the PhD position with us but also 12 other PhD positions in distinct european centers.
    I have created a new thread (http://seqanswers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=63298) with the whole details about the Opathy project and how to apply

      Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
      by seqadmin


      Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...

      Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
      by seqadmin


      Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
