  • A Computational Biologist/Bioinformaticist job at the University of Nice (France)

    Computational Biologist/Bioinformaticist
    Laboratory of Biology and Pathology of Genomes
    University of Nice-Sophia Antipolis, INSERM U988, CNRS UMR6267
    France

    Description

    The Laboratory of Biology and Pathology of Genomes is a new research department at the Faculty of Medicine of University of Nice-Sophia Antipolis dedicated to the study of genome plasticity in cancer and aging. We are recruiting a highly motivated Computational Biologist/Bioinformaticist to analyze high-throughput sequencing data and functional genomics (ChIP-seq, structural variation, resequencing, RNA-seq, genome annotation, gene networks..) for a contract of 2 years starting in July or August 2010. Eventually, the contract could be extended after 2 years.
    The work includes both the automation of third-party software, as well as code development to implement dedicated tools and statistical tests. The candidate will generate reports to summarize these results and store them in a database. In addition, he or she will regularly communicate research findings to other scientists.


    Education Requirements

    Applicants must have a Master or PhD degree in bioinformatics or computer science. Bachelor degree will also be considered if you have relevant project experience.

    Qualifications and Experience
    Demonstrated programming skills in scripting languages (such as Perl) and in relational database management systems (such as PHP-MySQL) are required, as well as a solid understanding of statistical methods. Familiarity with Unix-based environment and with other programming languages is also necessary. The applicant must demonstrate excellent communication skills and resourcefulness in working independently. The ideal applicant has at least 1 or 2 year(s) of research experience with sequence analyses and genomic databases.

    Contact
    To apply for this position, please provide a cover letter, a CV (including a description of previous achievements and programs) and the names of 3 references to Eric Gilson.

    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...
