EMBL is seeking a highly motivated (bio)informatician to work in the Genome Biology Computational Support (GBCS) group. The position involves the maintenance and development of emBASE, an EMBL-wide web-based application dedicated to the management of *omics data (in particular NGS data) produced by the different EMBL groups. The successful applicant will also maintain tools and scientific libraries on unix-based servers, develop analysis pipeline in Galaxy and/or using workflow management systems (e.g. snakemake), and help managing our Galaxy server. Ideally, the candidate is able to conduct data analysis (in particular NGS data using e.g. R/bioconductor) and has some experience with docker and cloud-based technologies. The successful applicant is in charge of supporting users on a daily basis, assembling training materials (e.g. writing of wiki-based documentation/how-to) and organizing tutorials [More]
The successful candidate will have a degree and experience as a Bioinformatician or Computational Biologist. Knowledge of a range of bioinformatics tools should be sufficient to provide support and training. Familiarity with scripting languages such as Python, Perl and R is expected, while programming abilities in other languages e.g. SQL, JAVASCRIPT and HTML could be an advantage. Familiarity with UNIX-based OSes is also desirable. The candidate should have prior experience of working at the interface between biology and computation. As well as being able to work well within a team, the candidate must have good communication, interpersonal and organizational skills. Initiative, flexibility and willingness to learn will complete your profile. [More]
Bioinformatician to work on developing new search and web interfaces for genetic variation resources. The applicant can expect, if appointed, to work on integrating Elasticsearch/Solr search technologies with existing Ensembl web components for data visualisation, and developing novel data visualisation tools for sample and variation data. The post-holder will also contribute to Ensembl Metazoa, the EBI's own portal for providing public access to genomic data from vector and non-vector species, and will work as part of a group of closely collaborating teams using the Ensembl platform for a wide variety of species from across the taxonomic space.

The position will be a part of the project "mRNA localization and local translation in neuronal cells". In highly polarized cells, many mRNAs have specific subcellular localization patterns and their translation is often regulated in a localization-dependent manner. We have conducted a screen to identify neuronal RNAs that change their localization and translation patterns upon abrogation of the miRNA function. The selected candidate will work a close tandem with experimentalists, analyzing RNA-seq, ribosome profiling, CLIP and mass-spectrometry data.The successful candidate will benefit from the international research environment and excellent learning opportunities. There will also be a chance to develop one’s own line of research for the future independent career. [More]
Postdoctoral positions in Computational Biology/Bioinformatics are available in the laboratory of Dr. Lionel Ivashkiv and the David Z. Rosensweig Genomics Research Center at the Hospital for Special Surgery/Weill Cornell Medicine (WCM). Postdoctoral Fellows will be co-mentored by Dr. Ivashkiv and computational biologists Drs. Eugenia Giannopoulou and Olivier Elemento. The Genomics Center’s focus is on using state-of-the-art next-generation sequencing (NGS) experimental approaches, including transcriptomics and epigenomics, to identify pathogenic mechanisms and new treatments for rheumatoid arthritis (RA), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and other autoimmune, inflammatory and musculoskeletal diseases.
