  • 2 year bioinformatics postdoc in the microbiome and prostate cancer risk @Norwich, UK

    We are looking for a talented and motivated individual to join a dynamic, multi- disciplinary research team at the University of East Anglia in Norwich as a Bioinformatics Officer to work on the Prostate Cancer UK funded project titled ‘The Role of Bacterial Infection in the Development of Advanced Prostate Cancer’. The post holder will use data from next generation sequencing platforms and advanced ‘omic techniques and analysis to identify bacteria populations present in samples from prostate cancer patients and determine whether there is a link between microbiome and prostate cancer risk.

    Applicants must have a PhD, or equivalent experience, in a relevant numeric biological subject (e.g. bioinformatics, computational biology) and have experience of working on sequence data, next generation sequence data and/or large genomics datasets. Strong organisational skills and knowledge of sequence alignment approaches and other basic bioinformatics algorithms is also essential.

    Closing date: 12 noon on 5 September 2016

    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...
