Postdoc in comparative genomics

Tue, 08 Dec 2020 09:26:40 -0600

We are looking for a highly motivated researcher for an 18 month postdoctoral position collaborating in an exciting project on comparative genomics of marine fish and shellfish species. In the project, we use genome resequencing data from a range of species to reconstruct the demographic history and characterize genomic signals associated with population divergence and local adaptation in high gene flow scenarios. The work will improve our understanding of interacting evolutionary processes and provide valuable data for securing sustainable management and conservation of exploited resources. Applicants are encouraged to develop their own research ideas within this framework.

The fellowship is part of a larger Nordic collaborative project, MarGen_II, financed by the EU Interreg Öresund-Kattegat-Skagerrak Programme, the Danish Rod and Net License Funds and the National Institute of Aquatic Resources (DTU Aqua). The project will primarily be carried out in the population genetics group, Section for Marine Living Resources, situated in Silkeborg, Denmark. DTU Aqua is an institute at the Technical University of Denmark. In addition, the position offers many opportunities for collaborating with Nordic and other European colleagues in the field.

Andrew Hessel co-chairs the Bioinformatics and Biotechnology track at the Singularity University, an institution founded by futurist Ray Kurzweil and X Prize Foundation CEO Peter Diamandis, with sponsorship from world-leading organizations that include Google, Autodesk, and NASA. He is also the founder of the Pink Army Cooperative, a venture aiming to make open source personalized cancer therapies. His work has been featured in The New York Times, Futurist Magazine, H+, and Wired News. In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

Bioinformatics in Africa: Part3 - Mali

BioStar — Sat, 06 Feb 2021 13:28:44 -0600

International Center for Excellence in Research (ICER):

The ICER is a research center composed of the following three programs: 1. The Malaria Research and Training Center Parasitology Group, 2. The Malaria Research and Training Center Entomology Group 3. The SEREFO Group.

The first two programs develop biomedical researches in malaria, Filariasis and Leishmaniasis. The third program develops biomedical researches in tuberculosis and HIV.

Bioinformatics was introduced recently to the ICER and is constantly growing. The ICER has one team, headed by Sidy SOUMARE, which supports the three programmes in all their needs in informatics and bioinformatics. This team can beneficiate from some computational facilities (4 blast servers, 15 other servers and around 200 terminals), but the ICER staff needs some training in order to be able to administrate these facilities.

Research Interest and Activities: The following are the present areas of research interest: 1. Functional genomics 2. Analysis of microarray data 3. Interaction between the vector and the parasite.
