The postdoc will join our efforts to extend our methods repertoire to accurately detect additional types of genomic changes, to adopt them to other taxonomic groups, and to apply them on a large-scale to existing and numerous newly-sequenced genomes generated by us and our TBG collaborators.

Candidate requirements
· PhD degree in bioinformatics / computational biology, genomics or a related area

· a strong publication record

· excellent programming skills in a Linux environment as well as experience with shell scripting and Unix tools

· previous experience in large-scale comparative genomic data analysis is an advantage.

The tutorial is divided in three main parts:

• In the Sequence part, you will see how to look efficiently for a particular protein sequence, how to blast it against the database of your choice to find homologues, how to perform a multiple alignment of the homologues you've selected and how to edit this alignment.
• The Structure part is about molecular visualization, homology modeling and structural domain prediction.
• In the Function part, you will be introduced to you 3 useful servers to investigate the function of a protein. i.e. finding interactors, co-expressed genes, see a phylogenetic profile, easily access papers citing your gene etc ...

During all the three parts, we will use the S. cerevisiae VPS36 protein as an example.
