  • Senior Scientific Programmer

    The Human Genome Sequencing Center (HGSC) at Baylor College of Medicine seeks an enthusiastic individual to work with software in a rapidly evolving research environment to support the advance of next generation sequencing technology and genomics research.

    As one of three large-scale sequencing centers funded by the National Institutes of Health, HGSC provides a unique opportunity to work with cutting-edge genomic scientists, and new clinical sequencing initiatives.

    Responsibilities:
    *Develop, implement, document and unit testing of software for the analysis of next generation sequencing data including large dataset integration.
    *Provide support for the existing production sequence QC and analysis systems, including the resolution of custom user requests.
    *Follow prescribed practices for software version control, testing, and release engineering.
    Demonstrate sensitivity to end-user needs, reflected in design of user interface and application workflow.
    *Apply analytical skills and creativity to solve diverse and challenging problems.
    *Ability to prioritize and organize various tasks on projects.
    *Present technical and analytical status in weekly meetings.

    Minimum Education Required: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, MIS, or related programming field. Preferred: A degree in domain informatics (computational biology, computational chemistry, bioinformatics, clinical informatics).

    Minimum Job Experience Required: Three years of experience in bioinformatics software development. Preferences:
    Strong computational/programming skills; including experience with the following: UNIX environment; Clustered computing: (MOAB/Torque, PBS, or LSF familiarity) and parallelization in a cluster environment; Proficiency in a programming language such as Ruby, Java, or Perl.
    Ruby/Perl software development experience.
    Familiarity with multi-processing/threading methods, and workflow/pipeline tools.
    Experience producing code documentation.
    Exposure to statistical analysis of large datasets.
    Ability to handle and prioritize multiple software requirements.
    Ability to function independently and solve technically complex problems.

    Please apply directly to 219338JC at www.medschooljobs.org

    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 on Modified Bases...

    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...
