Job Area: Bioinformatics
The Department of Comparative Development and Genetics at the Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research (MPIPZ) in Cologne is seeking a Bioinformatician to contribute to high throughput sequence data analyses for the purpose of understanding trait development and diversification in plants. The candidate will work in the group of the Director Prof. Dr. Miltos Tsiantis and will also enjoy opportunities for collaborating with the new bioinformatics group of Dr. Xiangchao Gan. Tasks will involve analysis and interpretation of high throughput sequencing data including RNAseq, ChIPseq and DNAseq generated predominantly but not exclusively on the Illumina platform. Outstanding teamwork and communication skills as well as willingness and ability to work collaboratively towards common goals are essential. Recent work by the group can be seen in Rast-Somssich, (2015) Alternate wiring of a KNOXI genetic network underlies differences in leaf development of A. thaliana and C. hirsutaGenes and Development in press; Cartolano et al (2015) Heterochrony underpins natural variation in Cardamine hirsuta leaf form PNAS 112, 10539–10544; Vlad et al (2014) Leaf shape evolution through duplication, regulatory diversification, and loss of a homeobox gene Science 343, 780-3. The position will suit creative, highly motivated individuals who can interact productively with biologists and are interested in the genetic basis for natural variation and evolutionary change.

The Bioinformatician will independently determine programmatic approaches to problems, and develop computational tools and software programs that are computationally efficient, effective, and well documented for public release. He/She will apply these tools to large datasets to generate novel biological insights and will communicate results to collaborators via conference calls and lab meetings. He/She will also be expected to contribute to manuscript preparation and to give presentation at both national international meetings. [More]
Talented, collaborative inter-disciplinary scientist to lead work on the computational analysis of high-dimensional tissue, cell and molecular profiling data. This individual will play a key scientific role leveraging innovative computational analysis strategies and rich patient data to empower data-driven decisions for therapeutic programs in Celgene’s Epigenetics Thematic Center of Excellence (TCoE). The role will align directly with the Celgene mission to improve therapeutic outcomes in complex diseases of unmet medical need. [More]

The European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) is one of the highest ranked scientific research organisations in the world. The Headquarters Laboratory is located in Heidelberg (Germany), with additional sites in Grenoble (France), Hamburg (Germany), Hinxton (UK) and Monterotondo (Italy). The Bork group seeks a Computational Biologist for the analysis of large-scale microbiomics data (metagenomics, metatranscriptomics etc). Focus will be on biological discovery by data integration. Data will come from various microbiome projects (e.g. human gut or ocean) and should be digested to gain functional understanding. The work will comprise technical as well as discovery aspects and will be carried out both independently and with internal and external collaborators. [More]
Software Engineer with experience in complex, scalable systems to join the Functional Genomics Development Team at the European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI) located on the Wellcome Genome Campus near Cambridge in the UK. Reporting to the Functional Genomics Development Team Leader the Software Engineer will be developing the BioStudies database, a new data resources at EMBL-EBI that serves as a generic data archive for biomolecular datasets. In particular, you will, together with the user interface development project leader, design, implement and maintain the BioStudies data access interface and BioStudies submission tool. The postholder will build project and domain-specific rendering of study information in BioStudies. [More]
