  • PhD scholarship in computational biology/bioinformatics in Auckland, New Zealand

    We have a PhD position, including scholarship covering fees and living expenses, available in our group in Auckland, New Zealand. The prospective candidate will analyse transcriptomics and genomics data sets from high-throughput experiments in mammalian systems with a focus on gene regulation, non-coding RNAs, and epigenetics. Please have a look at our recent publications to get an idea on what topics we work on. However, if you have specific interests within the wider scope of gene regulation and/or non-coding RNAs, we are happy to discuss those as well.

    You have experience in the analysis of next-generation sequencing datasets, e.g. RNA-seq, WGS, ChIP-seq, etc.? You have a MSc or BSc(Hons) degree (or equivalent) in a related discipline? You have a curious mind and enjoy doing research? You feel comfortable on the linux command-line and have good english language skills? You might just be the right person to fill this position! Both local and international students are encouraged to apply.

    The studentship covers all university fees and includes an annual tax-exempt stipend of up to NZ$27,500 for three years.

    To apply for this position, please email your complete application to Dr. Schmeier. The application should include a cover letter explaining why you are a great fit for our group, a current curriculum vitae including the names of two referees, your academic transcripts, as well as proof of english language skills if your past degrees are not from an english speaking institution (might be handed in at a later stage). If you think of applying for this position, please also have a look at the general guide for applicants.

    Enquiries and applications to Dr. Sebastian Schmeier ([email protected]).

    More information can be found at the Schmeier Group webpages: https://sschmeier.com/.

    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...
