  <title><![CDATA[Postdoc position at Kiel University, Germany]]></title>
  <description><![CDATA[
<p>In the Genomic Microbiology Group of Prof. Tal Dagan at the Institute<br />of Microbiology at Kiel University, Germany, a</p>

<p>Postdoc position (m/w/d)</p>

<p>in the field of computational evolutionary microbiology is available<br />for an initially limited period of 36 months at the earliest possible<br />date. The weekly working time corresponds to 100% of full employment<br />(If the legal requirements under collective bargaining law are met, the<br />tariff grouping is carried out up to pay scale 13 TV-L. The obligation<br />to teach amounts to 4 hours.</p>

<p>The Genomic Microbiology Group research interests are focused on<br />microbial genome evolution with an emphasis on the study of lateral gene<br />transfer. In our research we use both computational and experimental<br />approaches (see www.uni-kiel.de/genomik). The position offers the<br />opportunity to develop an independent research profile within the group<br />research focus. The successful applicant is expected to be involved<br />in teaching of bioinformatics and molecular evolution, including the<br />development of teaching materials (lectures/exercises/short videos).</p>

<p>Your profile:<br />· Doctoral or PhD degree in Molecular Evolution, Bioinformatics or<br />related fields.<br />· Knowledge and experience in programming (e.g., Python) and<br />biostatistical analysis (e.g., with R or MatLab).<br />· Any of the following expertise is an advantage: the analysis of<br />genomic or transcriptomic data, phylogenetic reconstruction,<br />comparative genomics.<br />· Good oral and written communication skills in English.<br />· Ability to teach in German is an advantage (alternatively, an<br />indication to do so from the 2nd year on).<br />· Skills and motivation to communicate and interact with other<br />scientists.<br /> <br />The Christian-Albrechts-University sees itself as a modern and<br />cosmopolitan employer. We welcome your application regardless of your age,<br />gender, cultural and social background, religion, ideology, disability<br />or sexual identity. We promote equality of the sexes.</p>

<p>The Christian-Albrechts-University is committed to the employment of<br />people with disabilities. Preference will be given to applications from<br />severely handicapped persons and persons of equal standing, provided<br />they are suitable.</p>

<p>We expressly welcome applications from people with a migration background.</p>

<p>For enquiries regarding the position, teaching obligations and research<br />topic please contact Prof. Tal Dagan: tdagan@ifam.uni-kiel.de.</p>

<p>Applications should be submitted by email to Mrs. Haacks<br />(dhaacks@ifam.uni-kiel.de) as a single PDF and include: (1) a letter of<br />motivation (max 1 page, Arial 11, line spacing 1.15), (2) CV, (3) PhD<br />certificate. Please use 'GMG postdoc application - [your name]'<br />as a subject.</p>

<p>Please, refrain from sending us application photos.</p>

<p>Application deadline:  August 31 2021 or until the position is<br />filled. Interviews will take place during September/October 2021. The<br />planned starting date for the position is flexible (but in 2021).</p>

	<title><![CDATA[16sRNA Database Download]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>Downloading 16S rRNA databases can be crucial for various bioinformatics analyses, especially in microbiome research. However, it's important to note that databases can vary based on your specific needs, such as the taxonomic coverage you require or the type of analysis you're performing. Here's a general guideline on how you can obtain 16S rRNA databases:</p><ol>
<li>
<p><span>NCBI (National Center for Biotechnology Information)</span>:</p>
<ul>
<li>NCBI provides various databases related to genetic information, including 16S rRNA sequences.</li>
<li>You can access the 16S ribosomal RNA sequences from NCBI's Nucleotide database (<a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nucleotide/" target="_new">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nucleotide/</a>).</li>
<li>Perform a search using keywords like "16S rRNA" or specific bacterial names to find relevant sequences.</li>
<li>You can download sequences individually or in batches using the provided tools.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
<p><span>GreenGenes</span>:</p>
<ul>
<li>GreenGenes is a widely used 16S rRNA gene sequence database.</li>
<li>You can access it at <a target="_new">http://greengenes.secondgenome.com/</a>.</li>
<li>GreenGenes provides precompiled databases for various purposes, including classification, alignment, and phylogenetic analysis.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
<p><span>SILVA</span>:</p>
<ul>
<li>SILVA (<a href="https://www.arb-silva.de/" target="_new">https://www.arb-silva.de/</a>) is another comprehensive database for ribosomal RNA (rRNA) sequences.</li>
<li>It covers not only 16S rRNA but also other ribosomal RNA sequences.</li>
<li>SILVA provides precompiled databases for various purposes, including taxonomic classification and alignment.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
<p><span>Ribosomal Database Project (RDP)</span>:</p>
<ul>
<li>RDP (<a target="_new">http://rdp.cme.msu.edu/</a>) is a curated database that offers 16S rRNA sequences.</li>
<li>It provides tools for sequence analysis and classification.</li>
<li>You can download sequences and taxonomy information from their website.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
<p><span>QIIME (Quantitative Insights Into Microbial Ecology)</span>:</p>
<ul>
<li>QIIME (<a href="https://qiime2.org/" target="_new">https://qiime2.org/</a>) is a widely used bioinformatics platform for microbiome analysis.</li>
<li>It provides tools for analyzing microbial communities, including processing 16S rRNA sequences.</li>
<li>QIIME often includes its own preprocessed 16S rRNA databases that can be used for analysis within the platform.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ol><p>Before downloading any database, make sure to read the terms of use and citation requirements, as some databases may have specific usage policies. Additionally, consider the compatibility of the database with your analysis pipeline and software tools.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>NCBI 16s RNA database location&nbsp;ftp://ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/blast/db/16SMicrobial.tar.gz</p>]]></description>
