  • Biocomputational engineer position in metagenomics at the LABGeM

    Background:
    Genoscope (http://www.genoscope.cns.fr - Genomics Institute of the French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission (Commissariat à l'Energie Atomique et aux Energies Alternatives) is one of the top level platforms in the field of genomics.

    Following the sequencing and primary analysis steps of raw DNA sequences, deep analysis of these biological big data requires intensive computing and bioinformatics methods still in evolution. As part of the Infrastructure France Genomics (Investments Avenir, https://www.france-genomique.org/ ), the aims of which is to integrate, at the national scale, the capabilities of genome analysis and bioinformatics processing of the generated data, a position of Engineer Bio-computer (CDD 18 months to 36 months), with a specialization in metagenomics, is opened in the LABGeM team (CEA / CNRS UMR8030 & IG).

    Missions:
    - Technological and implementation of programs dedicated to assembly of metagenomes and métatranscriptomes
    - Development of workflows dedicated to qualitative and quantitative analysis of metagenomes
    (gene prediction, metagenome comparisons, taxonomic assignatios) under the MicroScope platform (http://www.genoscope.cns.fr/agc/microscope ) and the CCRT (CEA computing center)
    - Participation in the development of an extension of the MicroScope platform dedicated to the analysis of metagenomes / métatranscriptomes relying on internal expertises coming from the SynBioWatch project (http://www.genoscope.cns.fr/synbiowatch/ ).

    Skills / knowledge:
    - Languages: Java, R, PHP
    - Knowledge of DBMS (MySQL, PostgreSQL) as well as SQL and NoSQL systems (MongoDB)
    - Practical knowledge of Unix / Linux systems and scripting languages
    - Knowledge of bioinformatics tools used for the analysis of metagenomic data
    - Experience in the field of data analysis (metagenomics and metatranscriptomics).
    - Knowledge of bioinformatics workflow managers (eg, Galaxy, JBPM / Drools)

    Contract Period: 18 to 36 months

    Application: To apply please send us a cover letter, a CV, and copies of your main scientific productions and three referees to Stéphane Cruveiller, scruveil__AT_genoscope.cns.fr, François Le Fevre, flefevre__AT__genoscope.cns.fr and Claudine Médigue, cmedigue_AT_genoscope.cns.fr .

    Deadline for applications: 08/04/2013

    Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
    by seqadmin




    The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...

    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...
