www.biostat.wisc.edu - Our basic strategy in building homology maps is to use exons that are orthologous in multiple genomes as map "anchors." Given K genomes, the steps in the map construction are as follows: For each genome, obtain a set of exon annotations. These...

As part of the PhD program in Computer Science at University of Essex, I am looking for a PhD student in computational and synthetic biology. The ideal candidate is interested in designing new biological design automation methods for genome scale...
