Ph.D. Fellowship (Computational Biology/Bioinformatics) : Cork, Ireland : Cork, Ireland

Thu, 15 Aug 2013 14:09:00 -0500

Ph.D. Fellowship (18,000 euro/pa, plus tuition fees at the EU students rate) is available for four years to work on development of Bioinformatics resources for the analysis and visualization of ribosome profiling data. Ribosome profiling (ribo-seq) is a technology that allows mapping positions of the ribosomes on the whole transcriptome level with a nucleotide precision. The technology allows obtaining high resolution digital snapshots of gene expression in cells. The position is available starting on the 1st of October, 2013.

Candidate:
The candidate is expected to have B.S. or M.S. degree in the disciplines such as Computer Science, Statistics, Applied Mathematics, Physics or Electrical Engineering. The candidates with the backgrounds in Life Science disciplines such as Bioinformatics, Computational or Quantitative Biology will also be considered.

Location:
The position is available at LAPTI (http://lapti.ucc.ie) that is located in the Western Gate Building (http://www.stwarchitects.com/project-information.php?c=1&p=09993) at University College Cork. Western Gate Building Research Complex hosts several UCC departments and provides ideal environment for interdisciplinary research. Cork (sometimes referenced as “Venice of Ireland”) is the second most populous city in the Republic. It has friendly cosmopolitan atmosphere and vibrant culture. A number of American industrial giants such as Apple , EMC and Pfizer have chosen Cork as a home for their European headquarters.

Application process:
The details of the application process are given at http://lapti.ucc.ie/jobs.html. To ensure prompt processing of your application use the subject line: ‘Ph.D. computational’. All applications received prior to August the 1st are guaranteed equal consideration. However, applications at the later dates will also be considered until the position is filled.

Applied Computational Genomics Course at UU: Spring 2020

Shruti Paniwala — Wed, 23 Dec 2020 03:30:44 -0600

This course will provide a comprehensive introduction to fundamental concepts and experimental approaches in the analysis and interpretation of experimental genomics data. It will be structured as a series of lectures covering key concepts and analytical strategies. A diverse range of biological questions enabled by modern DNA sequencing technologies will be explored including sequence alignment, the identification of genetic variation, structural variation, and ChIP-seq and RNA-seq analysis. Students will learn and apply the fundamental data formats and analysis strategies that underlie computational genomics research. The primary goal of the course is for students to be grounded in theory and leave the course empowered to conduct independent genomic analyses.
