You can find some useful open source bioinformatics codes for your analysis work. You can use the left bar options to filtere out or narrow down your search result. This webpage can be an useful resource for a beginners bioinformatician as it contain several bioinformatics basics script that are commonly used by biological programmers and biologist.

Stand on the slumped, dandruff-covered shoulders of millions of computer nerds. _/\_

Enjoy the code and research work.

Novel diagnostic platform for detection of Osteoarthritis

I invite applications from highly motivated individuals to join my laboratory as a PhD student in Systems Biology at the University of Calgary McCaig Institute for Bone and Joint Health. This project is aimed at characterizing the networks of physical (protein-protein) interactions underlying inflammatory processes in patients with Osteoarthritis and how this differs from patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis and normal individuals. This work will eventually lead to the development of a novel diagnostic platform for the non-invasive and accurate detection of early Osteoarthritis. The selected candidate will use state-of-the-art computational methodologies to systematically analyze proteomic data, and develop /implement new algorithms to identify protein and functional interaction networks from high throughput experimental data. The individual will also benefit by working closely with experts at the UofC and UofA through an AIHS Alberta Osteoarthritis Team Grant which includes experts from all pillars of health research. The candidate will also be supported to attend bioinformatics workshops and conferences to advance and disseminate their research.
Qualifications: The ideal candidate will have a Master’s degree in Computational Biology, Bioinformatics, or equivalent with strong background knowledge of the Biological Sciences, Biochemistry, and Microbiology. The individual should additionally have experience in handling high-throughput data sets as well as programming skills. The candidate will be registered as a PhD student in Dr. Krawetz’s laboratory, located in the new state-of-the-art Health Research Innovation Centre at the UofC. The individual will have strong verbal and written skills and the ability to work efficiently in a team environment.

In addition to the outstanding research opportunities available in this setting, students also enjoy the many cultural and sporting amenities provided in the city of Calgary, and can take advantage of the unparalleled skiing and hiking in the Rocky Mountains that are less than an hour away.

Candidates must be academically competitive and will be expected to apply for external funding. The stipend is $25,000/yr. For outstanding PhD students, internal top-up award opportunities are available on a competitive basis. If interested in joining the lab, please contact Dr. Krawetz directly at rkrawetz@ucalgary.ca and provide the following information:

- Short cover letter explaining your interest in the lab
- Resume
- Scanned copy of transcript or listing of course grades
- Names and contact information for two individuals who will be willing to provide letters of reference
