There are several jobs opening in bioinformatics all around the world, but many of them do not get proper attention due to lack of advertisements, or social connectivity. This bookmark is created for an academic, non-academic, scientists and budding researchers to help and updates the bioinformatics/computational biology jobs links of all know websites around the world.

I also love to stream the live bioinformatics or Computational biology jobs updates using Twitter https://twitter.com/search?q=bioinformatics%20jobs&src=typd

1. NCBI (National Center for Biotechnology Information):

   • NCBI provides various databases related to genetic information, including 16S rRNA sequences.
   • You can access the 16S ribosomal RNA sequences from NCBI's Nucleotide database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nucleotide/).
   • Perform a search using keywords like "16S rRNA" or specific bacterial names to find relevant sequences.
   • You can download sequences individually or in batches using the provided tools.

2. GreenGenes:

   • GreenGenes is a widely used 16S rRNA gene sequence database.
   • You can access it at http://greengenes.secondgenome.com/.
   • GreenGenes provides precompiled databases for various purposes, including classification, alignment, and phylogenetic analysis.

3. SILVA:

   • SILVA (https://www.arb-silva.de/) is another comprehensive database for ribosomal RNA (rRNA) sequences.
   • It covers not only 16S rRNA but also other ribosomal RNA sequences.
   • SILVA provides precompiled databases for various purposes, including taxonomic classification and alignment.

4. Ribosomal Database Project (RDP):

   • RDP (http://rdp.cme.msu.edu/) is a curated database that offers 16S rRNA sequences.
   • It provides tools for sequence analysis and classification.
   • You can download sequences and taxonomy information from their website.

5. QIIME (Quantitative Insights Into Microbial Ecology):

   • QIIME (https://qiime2.org/) is a widely used bioinformatics platform for microbiome analysis.
   • It provides tools for analyzing microbial communities, including processing 16S rRNA sequences.
   • QIIME often includes its own preprocessed 16S rRNA databases that can be used for analysis within the platform.

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.

Average read length is around 8,500 base pairs in release dataset. Best thing about this, there is not much effect on cost and quality of data.

At the Repository for Tomato Genomics Resources, we are working on Tomato Functional Genomics, using TILLING, Insertional Mutagenesis, proteomics, metabolomics approaches to study fruit ripening in tomato. The current aims of the group include using reverse and forward genetics strategies to isolate tomato mutants delayed in ripening, having high lycopene and folate content in tomato fruits and analysis of light and hormonal signal transduction pathways. For recent publications of the group see (Plant Physiol 161: 2085–2101, Plant Physiol 156: 1424-1438; Molecular Plant 3: 854-869; Plant Methods 6: 3; Plant Methods 5:18; Plant Signaling and Behavior 5:11.).

Currently we have one position available in the projects awarded to Prof. R.P. Sharma funded by Dept of Biotechnology. The qualification for this Position is as follows:

Research Assistant: Applicants should have experience in networking using R language and should be able to develop networks using the transcriptome, proteome and metabolite data sets. M.Tech. in Bioinformatics is required. The selected candidate would be paid Rs. 13,000/-pm- consolidated.

Candidates interested in above positions should send a one page statement clearly explaining how their skills are relevant to the position. The candidates should also enclose detailed CV and the name/email id for three referees. The candidates can send their application by email at rameshwar.sharma@uohyd.ac.in and y.sreelakshmi@uohyd.ac.in on or before December 10th, 2013. The position is purely temporary in nature. Shortlisted candidates would be called for interview. No TA/DA would be provided for attending the interview. We also have openings for CSIR-NET JRF candidates for pursuing PhD in above research areas.

Interested candidates with CSIR-NET JRF can send their CV to the above email
addresses.

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.
