  • 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;

    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...
