There is a vacancy for a permanent associate professor position at the Department of Biology (BIO) within fish health (bacteriology).   Work tasks / research field / teaching Fish health is an expanding field at the University of Bergen (UiB). It is a goal to be in the research front nationally and internationally, and to be a leading institution on expertise on fish health education. The Fish health groups at BIO are central to research and education within fish health and in the work for healthy fish in Norwegian aquaculture. Research is important for the aquaculture industry, in particular in the production of farmed fish and interactions with wild fish stocks. Research in bacteriology aims to clarify fundamental properties for pathogenic bacteria and disease processes for farmed species. The research shall promote curiosity driven science in the field, ranging from pure basic research to applied problems.   The research at BIO is organized in 14 research groups. The fish health field encompasses three research groups: Fish Immunology, Fish Diseases and the Sea Lice Research Centre. Research in fish health is both experimental and related to fieldwork. The most important fields are immunology, parasitology, bacteriology and virology, where for example methods in molecular biology, cell biology, anatomy/histology/cytology, bioinformatics and evolutionary biology is used. The research groups have modern and well equipped research laboratories, including specialized facilities for fish research. Teaching in fish health is included in the position. Completed education program in fish health provides authorization aqua medicine, and the right to use the title aqua veterinarian. In 2015 BIO was awarded resources to expand the annual intake of students in the program from 10 to 25 students. Closing date for applications: 10 June 2016   General information Detailed information about the position can be obtained by contacting Associate Professor Andreas Steigen, coordinator for the education program in fish health (ph: +47 55584242 / email:andreas.steigen@uib.no) or Head of Department, Professor Anders Goksøyr (ph: +47 55584403 / email:anders.goksoyr@uib.no).

Postdoctoral Fellow - Senior Bioinformatician Salary range: £30655 to £38428pa plus excellent benefits Fixed-term for 3 years We are looking for a creative, motivated and collaborative bioinformatician/postdoctoral scientist to join the Host-Microbiota Interactions Laboratory (www.lawleylab.com) investigating interactions between host and microbiota during health and disease.  The group has projects focused on infectious diseases, antibiotic therapies, autoimmune diseases and early life colonization. The lab is very collaborative and consists of microbiologists, bioinformaticians, cell biologists and mouse biologists so there is ample capacity for the individual to develop new skill sets. The group is well resourced giving the individual access to cutting edge genomic and proteomic tools (host and microbiota), human organoids, transgenic mice, germ free mice, a human microbiota bacterial culture collection and state of the art anaerobic culturing facility. The lab is focused on translational science with links to the biotech industry. The Lawley Lab has developed unique capabilities to culture the majority of bacteria in the human intestinal microbiota (Browne et al. 2016. Nature). The Lab maintains an extensive bacterial culture collection of >300 species and has sequenced all species to generate reference genome database (Forster et al. 2016. NAR). The individual will use advanced genomic analysis methods and generally focus on establishing the phylogenies and accessory genomes of dominant bacterial clades the human intestinal microbiota to assist in identifying functional attributes of bacteria that promote health. This is a unique position as the project leverages a comprehensive human microbiota culture collection and associated genomic data combined with cutting edge laboratory culturing and animal model facilities in a world leading genome research institute. The applicant should have a strong background in bioinformatics, a knowledge of microbiology and have an interest in learning about host-pathogen interactions and the biology of host-associated microbial communities during health and disease. Key Responsibilities include: Manage and analyse large-scale whole-genome sequencing datasets and their associated projects Perform analysis on datasets generated by next generation sequencing platforms Integrate sequence data with biological experiments/phenotypic data Liaise with collaborators and coordinate projects Train group members Develop software and develop new methods to analyse sequence data  [More]

PostDoc/Scientist: Epigenomics and Transcriptomics of Human Diseases Themes: Epigenomics (special focus on underexplored and new types of epigenetic variations), Transcriptomics, Integrate Single Molecule Sequencing (PacBio, Oxford Nanopore) + Illumina, Systems Biology of Human Diseases Job description and Our Unique Expertise: Postdoc fellow and Senior Scientist positions at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine (Top-20 medical school in the US) in New York City. Our lab is in the Department of Genetics and Genomic Sciences and the Institute for Genomics and Multi-scale Biology. Our lab (80% computation + 20% experimental) pioneered the fast growing field of bacterial epigenomics with different forms of DNA methylations (e.g. 6mA, 4mC) beyond 5mC (the one extensively studied in human). Recent work by us and others discovered that not only does 6mA exists in eukaryotes including human, but it also has significant functional roles. A major focus of our lab is to explore this young and promising field of 6mA epigenomes, discover other novel types of DNA modifications, their relationship to well-studied DNA/histone modifications, and make fundamentally new discoveries about human diseases: infectious diseases, cancers and mental disorders. We have unique expertise in the use of third generation sequencing (single molecule real-time, ~20kbp read length, and the emerging nanopore technique) with advantages of detecting different types of DNA modifications, single molecule-level epigenetic phasing, full-length transcript isoforms, complex structural variations. Successful candidates will have unique opportunities to i) build on our unique expertise, large scale collection of clinically relevant samples and a strong network of collaborators, ii) take the lead role in multiple projects on the innovative use of third-generation sequencing and systems biology to pioneer the mapping and characterization of novel forms of DNA methylations in eukaryotic genomes for both basic biology and clinical applications. Compensations for successful candidates are highly competitive. Subsidized housing (in New York City) is also available.
