Program Officer, Bioinformatics at Jhpiego

Tue, 29 Aug 2023 00:05:30 -0500

Jhpiego is a non-profit global health leader and Johns Hopkins University affiliate that is saving lives, improving health, and transforming futures. We partner with governments, health experts, and local communities to build the skills and systems that guarantee a healthier future for women and families. Jhpiego translates the best science and practices into moments of care that can mean the difference between life and death for women and families. The moment a woman gives birth; the moment a midwife helps a newborn to breathe. Through our partnerships, we are revolutionizing health care for the world’s most disadvantaged and vulnerable people. In India, Jhpiego works across various states in close collaboration with national and state governments, providing technical assistance in the areas of family planning, maternal and child health, strengthening human resources for health, and non-communicable diseases. These programs are funded by USAID, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the David & Lucile Packard Foundation, the Children’s Investment Fund Foundation (CIFF), , and other anonymous donors.

The Program Officer, Bioinformatics, operating under the Senior Advisor for Metagenomics & Lab Systems, will play a pivotal role in leveraging bioinformatics to advance the objectives of the Health Security and AMR program. This position offers a unique opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge genomics research and its application in public health.

Each year, INRAE organises open competitions to recruit research scientists on permanent positions. The recruitment campaign is generally aimed at researchers who have recently obtained their PhD. Candidates are recruited on the basis of their scientific competence which they will put to the service of INRAE's major research axes by responding to a research topic. Candidates must have published articles on the results of their PhD.

Would you like to take part in public research and participate in projects which are vital for society such as adapting to climate change, food security, human health and preserving natural resources? Then join our research teams by sending in your application to our open competitions for research scientists.

2023 campaign calendar
- Opening date for applications: January 30, 2023
- Deadline for applications: March 2, 2023
- Pre-selections (on scientific file): April 2023
- Final selections (interview): between end of May and mid-June 2023

PhD positions on integrative omics and phylogenomics

Wed, 19 Oct 2022 05:11:11 -0500

Would you like to participate in an exciting interdisciplinary research project to discover the hidden chemistry of plants and its evolution using computational omics approaches? Do you enjoy collaboration and teamwork while being at the cutting edge of scientific progress? We are looking for two PhD candidates with complementary skills to pioneer new technologies to analyze, explore and leverage the diversity of plant chemistry hidden in plant genomes.

Plants represent an untapped resource of natural bioactive compounds that significantly contribute to plant resilience to pathogens, herbivores, and abiotic stresses, and may be applied for medicine or crop protection. In this project, you will design and/or apply innovative omics integration strategies for genomics, transcriptomics, and metabolomics data, to discover plant specialized metabolite biosynthetic pathways and study their evolution. You will work together with the other PhD candidate in this project, which will entail a combination of algorithm development, greenhouse experiments, integrative omics analysis, and evolutionary genomics. Extensive local and international collaboration is foreseen, including possibilities for a foreign research visit as part of your PhD project.

The research is embedded within the chairs of Bioinformatics and Biosystematics. The projects will be (co-)supervised by Dr. Marnix Medema, Dr. Justin van der Hooft, Dr. Klaas Bouwmeester and Prof. Dr. Eric Schranz.

We ask

We are looking for two enthusiastic and complementary team players with all or a subset of the following skills:

a solid academic record (MSc) in bioinformatics, biology, or biotechnology
experience in computational omics analysis and proficiency in programming (in, e.g., Python)
at least basic to intermediate statistical and mathematical skills
demonstrable experience in working with next-generation sequencing data or with greenhouse experiments with plants
affinity with plant science, metabolism and/or biosynthetic pathways
you meet all the entry requirements of the WUR PhD programme.
