Scientists have reconstructed the genome of an ancient human who lived nearly 5,700 years ago in Southern Denmark from the birch pitch- an ancient tar-like substance.
We are looking for a motivated application scientist to help evaluate, compare, and develop next generation sequencing (NGS) data analysis methods. The successful candidate should be able to quickly understand the state-of-art computational biology...
