    Looking for advice on european genomics

    Hi All,

    I am in the final year of my PhD and starting to get a little worried about what I am going to do next...

    I don't think I want to do a postdoc, but I love what I do (developing molecular biology and bioinformatic tools for generating/analysing genome wide transcription/epigenetics/organisation data).

    So what I want to know is :
    • Where are the major centres/institutes for genomics in europe?
    • Are there any particular companies I should be looking out for?
    • Any hospitals increasing their genomics facilities?
    • Any institutes creating/increasing their genomics facilities/departments.
    • Any recommended job posting boards?
    • http://www.bioinformatics.fr
  • http://www.nature.com/jobs
  • Obviously this one too...


  • I would really appreciate any advice anyone has to offer. Thanks in advance.

    One option to consider is the biomedical research park in Barcelona, Catalonia:

      I am actually off to Barcelona next month, so I will check it out!

      I have also heard Berlin is becoming something of a biotech hub - does anyone know of good companies/institutes to look at?

        Eml

        The EML in Heidelberg recently hosted a superb 3rd International Biocuration Conference in Berlin which featured excellent local participation.

          Has anyone heard anything about Berlin? I think Pfizer just moved their HQ there, so there might be upcoming opportunities... Any other companies/hospitals/institutes worth a look?

                  Beyond CRISPR/Cas9: Understand, Choose, and Use the Right Genome Editing Tool
                  by SEQadmin2



                  CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).

                  Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into

                  Proteomic Platforms: How to Choose the Right Analytical Strategy to Improve Detection and Clinical Applications
                  by SEQadmin2


                  Proteomics platforms are evolving rapidly, with advances in mass spectrometry and affinity-based approaches expanding what researchers can detect and at what scale. As the field moves toward deeper proteome coverage and clinical applications, scientists face an increasingly complex landscape of tools. This article will explore how researchers are navigating these choices to find the right platform for their work.

                  The systematic characterization of the human proteome has

                  Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems
                  by SEQadmin2



                  Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.
