    Postdoc Opportunities in Computational and Systems Biology

    Postdoc Opportunities in Computational and Systems Biology at the Center for Genome Dynamics

    The Center for Genome Dynamics (www.genomedynamics.org) is an NIGMS National Center for Systems Biology housed at The Jackson Laboratory. The Center embraces a systems approach to genetics, with an emphasis on rodent models of complex disease-related phenotypes. Center investigators have interests in computation, mathematical modeling and statistics, with a shared focus on the genetics of complex traits within the Center’s collaborative and cross-disciplinary environment.

    The Jackson Laboratory (www.jax.org) in Bar Harbor, Maine, USA, offers a unique research and training environment characterized by scientific collaboration, unparalleled mouse resources and outstanding core services within a spectacular setting adjacent to Acadia National Park. The Jackson Laboratory’s postdoctoral program ranks among the nation's top - voted #2 in a poll of postdocs conducted by The Scientist (2009).

    Required Experience
    Applicants should have a PhD (or equivalent degree) in a quantitative field such as computer science, statistics, applied mathematics or in the biological sciences but with a strong quantitative background. Applicants must demonstrate a commitment to solving biological problems. Successful applicants must have good communication skills. Experience with scientific programming languages including java, c/c++, ruby, perl, or R is recommended. Work within the center is highly interdisciplinary, and applicants must demonstrate a desire to develop skills in new areas of science and in building strong collaborations.

    To Apply
    Please apply online at www.jax.org/careers (Job ID 2311). The Jackson Laboratory is an EOE/AA employer.

    Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
    by SEQadmin2


    I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

    Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...

    From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
    by SEQadmin2


    Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


    The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
