Postdoctoral position is available for three years to work on development of Bioinformatics resources for the analysis and visualization of ribosome profiling data. Ribosome profiling (ribo-seq) is a technology that allows mapping positions of the ribosomes on the whole transcriptome level with a nucleotide precision. The technology allows obtaining high resolution digital snapshots of gene expression in cells. The position is available starting on the 1st of October, 2013.

Candidate is expected to have Ph.D. in Bioinformatics or Computational Biology. Candidates with the degree in non-Biological disciplines such as Computer Science, Statistics, Applied Mathematics, Physics or Electrical Engineering will also be considered.

The position is available at LAPTI (http://lapti.ucc.ie) that is located in the Western Gate Building (http://www.stwarchitects.com/project-information.php?c=1&p=09993) at University College Cork. Western Gate Building Research Complex hosts several UCC departments and provides ideal environment for interdisciplinary research. Cork (sometimes referenced as “Venice of Ireland”) is the second most populous city in the Republic. It has friendly cosmopolitan atmosphere and vibrant culture. A number of American industrial giants such as Apple , EMC and Pfizer have chosen Cork as a home for their European headquarters.

The details of the application process are given at http://lapti.ucc.ie/jobs.html. To ensure prompt processing of your application use the subject line: ‘Postdoc computational’. All applications received prior to August the 1st are guaranteed equal consideration. However, applications at the later dates will also be considered until the position is filled.

Genome Workbench can display sequence data in many ways, including graphical sequence views, various alignment views, phylogenetic tree views, and tabular views of data. It can also align your private data to data in public databases, display your data in the context of public data, and retrieve BLAST results.

Genome Workbench is built on the NCBI C++ ToolKit and uses cross-platform APIs for graphics. It runs on your local machine, and is available for Windows 2000/XP, Linux, MacOS X, and various flavors of Unix.

NCBI Genome Workbench is an integrated application for viewing and analyzing sequence data. Genome Workbench was developed entirely in-house at NCBI and makes use of the NCBI C++ ToolKit. The C++ ToolKit provides a convenient and flexible cross-platform API for managing system internals, database connections, network sockets, and the NCBI data model. In addition, the C++ ToolKit provides the Object Manager, which abstracts handling of sequences and sequence-related objects.

 New Features in Genome Workbench 2.7.15

• Multiple Alignment View: implemented adaptive feature display when zooming in
• Active Objects Inspector replaces Selection Inspector. New View should offer an improved selection context examination. See Using Active Objects Inspector tutorial for more details.
• Binary packages for Linux OpenSUSE 13.1 are now available

Bug Fixes and Improvements in Genome Workbench 2.7.15

• Fixed major issue with OpenGL overlay/scrolling. Could cause crashes or view scrolling irregularities
• Multiple Pane View: fixed crash on loading BLAST results
• Graphical Sequence View: fixed crash on zooming in and out, related to SNP track
• Graphical Sequence View: fixed Go To Position dialog to give better diagnostics in case of a user error
• Graphical Sequence View: PDF export fixed rendering of Markers with commas in the name
• Text View / Flat File: fixed Mac OS rendering issues
• Text View / Flat File: performance optimization, extended capabilities of real-time rendering of molecules to tens of thousands
• File Import: optimization improvement to speed up load of files containing multiple project items
• File Import: remapping stage now shows accession.version and description of molecules, instead of plain GI numbers
• Mac OS: improved tooltips for toolbar buttons
• Phylogenetic Tree Builder Tool: improved diagnostics of errors
• Multiple Alignment View: optimizations to avoid main GUI freezes
• Open Dialog: removed duplicate elements in table of genomes (load Genome)
• PDF export: fixed issue with XREF table errors
• Tree View: fixed issues with showing Force Layout progress on Mac OS
• Tree View: PDF export fixed issues for showing labels of collapsed nodes
• Tree View: added an option to stop layout
• Tree View: broadcasting mechanism fixed not to accumulate selected nodes
