2 positions on the evolutionary analysis of biological sequences in Montpellier - France

Mon, 28 Sep 2015 08:25:48 -0500

The Methods and Algorithms for Bioinformatics (MAB) team at the LIRMM (computer science, robotics and microelectronics laboratory at the CNRS & University of Montpellier, France) is looking for talented individuals to fill two postdoctoral positions. We are seeking candidates with a strong background in computational evolutionary biology. The positions will start by the end of 2015.

The first of the positions (duration: 18-24 months), associated with the European VIROGENESIS project (http://www.kuleuven.be/english/research/EU/p/horizon2020/sc/sc1/Virogenesis), concerns the evolutionary analysis of viral sequences. Topics include -- but are not limited to -- phylogenetic classification of metagenomic reads and the recombination history of viruses.

The second position (duration: 1 year), associated with the Institute for Computational Biology (IBC, http://www.ibc-montpellier.fr), concerns evolutionary analyses of large-scale genomic data -- including the inference of very large phylogenies, gene/species tree reconciliation, comparative genomics, phylogenetic network inference and verification, phylogeography, the use of phylogenies to study the evolution of characters.

A one thousand year old city, Montpellier is a thriving research community with a multitude of biology and biomedical research centers. It is the fastest growing city in France where approximately one third of the population are students, and a wonderful location for outdoor activities (kite/wind surfing, sailing, river/sea kayaking, hiking and rock climbing). The LIRMM is one of the most visible computer science laboratories in France.

Statistical for biological research

Neel — Thu, 03 Nov 2016 04:59:48 -0500

There is no disputing the importance of statistical analysis in biological research, but too often it is considered only after an experiment is completed, when it may be too late.

This collection highlights important statistical issues that biologists should be aware of and provides practical advice to help them improve the rigor of their work.

Nature Methods' Points of Significance column on statistics explains many key statistical and experimental design concepts. Other resources include an online plotting tool and links to statistics guides from other publishers.
