Bioinformatics cover wide area of biology, and indulge in almost all sort of science related work. Bioinformatician give strong emphasis on open access to biological information as well as Free and Open Source software!!

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

Find out here about exciting job opportunities in the life sciences.

Please add well known bioinformatics jobs websites below in comment section.

We are interested in the study of complex systems in living organisms. Novel views augmenting the classical gene by gene approaches are required to overcome the engineered redundancies and combinatorial effects prevalent in higher eukaryotes. We therefore combine work to establish improved quantitative experimental assays, such as microarrays or differential in-gel electrophoresis, and development of modern computational methods, such as hierarchical probabilistic models or integration of heterogeneous data sources, focussed by biological studies in our laboratory and collaborations.

Highlights of our research include:

Optimization of microarray design, probe signal interpretation
Advanced models and tools for expression profiling
State-of-the-art applications and integrated analyses
