  • Senior Bioinformatics Officer – NGS at the Institute of Cancer Research, London

    We are seeking an experienced and motivated Senior Bioinformatics Officer to support Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) based projects within the Breakthrough Centre. The successful post holder will actively participate in (i) the design of novel NGS analysis pipelines and (ii) the analysis of NGS data. The post holder will be expected to use these skills to become involved in a wide variety of projects associated with the dissection of cancer.
    The NGS facility at the Breakthrough Centre, ICR works closely with ICR scientists and external collaborators. This post would give the successful applicant the opportunity to apply NGS analysis to projects with both translational and basic biological impact.
    Experience in biologically relevant programming as well as experience in analysis of NGS data is essential. The successful post-holder will be expected to have a publication record in the field that demonstrates this experience. Mathematical and/or statistical background is also desirable.
    Applicants should hold a post-graduate qualification in Bioinformatics or a relevant area with extensive programming experience and understanding of the UNIX/Linux environment. Experience in working with relational databases is desirable.
    To apply please email your CV and covering letter (addressing where you meet the person specification and incl. the names and addresses of two referees), to: [email protected], quoting job reference number C361.

    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...
