Genomics England will play a key role in building on the UK’s long track record as leader in medical science advances to push the boundaries by unlocking the power of DNA data. The UK will become the first ever country to introduce this technology in its mainstream health system – leading the global race for better tests, better drugs and above all better, more personalised care.

SciGenom Research Foundation (SGRF) and Institute of Genomics and Integrative Biology (IGIB) are pleased to host the Next-Generation Sequencing and Bioinformatics for Genomics & Healthcare conference.

In the ten years since the first human reference genome was completed for US$3 billion the sequencing technologies have radically changed leading to great reduction in sequencing cost. Today a human genome can be sequenced for under US$ 5000 in less than two weeks. It is expected that by the end of 2015 the cost of sequencing a human genome will drop to below thousand dollars. The next generation sequencing technologies over the past five years have enabled a large number of genomic studies that impact human health and disease. Also, this has made possible the growth of microbial, animal and plant genomics studies. While the data production has increased at a rapid pace challenges remain in analyzing and understanding the data. The conference will cover the next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies, bioinformatics for NGS and applications of NGS in many areas including personalized medicine.

RNAs, especially non-coding RNAs (such as microRNA, long ncRNAs) are recently identified to be very abundant in mammalian organisms and play some key roles in gene expression regulation, gene silencing, and also implicated in disease progression, stem cell pluripotency etc. Current research activities of our lab include analysis of expression pattern of ncRNAs by microarray and next-gen sequencing data and understanding the role of miRNAs or other regulatory RNAs in various diseases, especially cancer and validation by reporter assays (renilla/luciferase) and other experimental tools.

Genome Annotation and Functional Genomics

Bergman Lab is actively engaged in the development and application of computational methods to improve the annotation of functional biological features in genome sequences. Bergman Lab work focuses on improving annotation of non-protein-coding regions of the genome including conserved noncoding sequences (CNSs), cis-regulatory modules (CRMs), transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs), transposable elements (TEs) and noncoding RNA (ncRNA) genes. Current projects include improving the (i) annotation of TEs in the fly and yeast genomes, (ii) annotation of CRMs and TFBSs in the fly genome, and (iii) analysis of transposon knockout collections in flies. Research in this area is supported by the EC FP7 programme.

The postdoctoral researcher will contribute to this project using
a combination of evolutionary and comparative genomics, as well as a
diverse set of bioinformatic approaches for data analysis and integration
(e.g., transcriptomics, genomics, phenotypic data). This position offers
a unique opportunity to integrate diverse state-of-the-art genomic and
phenotypic datasets across different model organisms to understand the
role of genes, molecular pathways in the origin of complex diseases.

CINV provides a highly collaborative and multidisciplinary environment
using a variety of computational and experimental approaches,
including genetically tractable animal models as well as expertise in
genetics, behavior, glia-neuron communication, metabolism, biophysics,
genomics, bioinformatics, host-microbe communication, and biomolecular
modelling. The new postdoc will be part of one of our labs which focuses
more generally on the intersection between molecular evolution and
disease biology.

Required qualifications are a PhD in evolutionary biology, computational
biology, bioinformatics, or closely related fields. Candidates must have
excellent verbal and written communication skills (working language
is English), as well as an established record of productivity (e.g.,
at least one previous peer-reviewed publication). Candidates with a
past record of publications in bioinfomatics, computational biology,
population genetics or evolutionary genomics are strongly preferred. Ideal
candidates should have experience in analyzing genomic and phenomic
data, performing comparative evolution or population genomic analyses,
as well as in collaborating with experimentalists.

Interested candidates should first contact Evandro Ferrada at
. Please include the following: (1) a cover
letter addressing your interest in the position and how your expertise
meets the position requirements, (2) a CV, (3) contact information of
at least 2 references. A short online interview will follow to discuss
specific proposals. Candidate materials will be reviewed as soon as
possible until the position is filled.
