he CMG-biotools system presents a stand-alone interface for comparative microbial genomics. The package is a customized operating system, based on Xubuntu 10.10, available through the open source Ubuntu project. The system can be installed on a virtual computer, allowing the user to run the system alongside any other operating system. Source codes for all programs are provided under GNU license, which makes it possible to transfer the programs to other systems if so desired. We here demonstrate the package by comparing and analyzing the diversity within the class Negativicutes, represented by 31 genomes including 10 genera. The analyses include 16S rRNA phylogeny, basic DNA and codon statistics, proteome comparisons using BLAST and graphical analyses of DNA structures.

The University of Idaho is in Moscow, a small college town located in
Northern Idaho on the Washington border. Moscow is widely considered to
be a great place to live, and it's known for a pleasant downtown, active
farmer's market, and nearby recreational opportunities. All of Moscow
is within biking or walking distance of the University of Idaho. For
more information about Moscow, see https://visitmoscowid.com/.

The University of Idaho has very strong faculty in evolution and
genomics in multiple departments and interdisciplinary programs. Of
particular note are the Bioinformatics and Computational Biology
Program (BCB: https://www.uidaho.edu/sci/bcb/people/faculty) and
the Institute for Bioinformatics and Evolutionary Studies (IBEST:
https://www.ibest.uidaho.edu/index.php). In addition, the University of
Idaho is only eight miles from Washington State University in Pullman, and
faculty from the two institutions interact and collaborate extensively.

Minimum qualifications include: a Ph.D. in biological sciences,
bioinformatics, or a related discipline; experience conducting research
in genomics or evolutionary biology, as evidenced by publications
in peer-reviewed journals; and evidence of strong written and oral
communication skills. Experience analyzing next-generation sequence
data and familiarity with the genomics of marine fishes are desirable
but not required.

Review of applications will begin January 15, 2021. The start date
is flexible.

The University of Idaho is an equal opportunity/Affirmative Action/equal
access employer.

We are looking for a highly motivated candidate with a PhD degree in
Bioinformatics or a related field. Candidates are expected to have a
strong background in evolutionary biology and/or comparative functional
genomics. Additional experiences in single cell functional genomics
analyses, statistics and computational data analyses are a plus, as is
an interest in comparative developmental (EvoDevo) questions.

We offer a dynamic and interactive research environment with state-of-the
art research facilities, good research funding and internationally
competitive salaries.

The Tschopp lab (www.evolution.unibas.ch/tschopp/research/)
studies the gene regulatory mechanisms of cell type
specification and evolution in vertebrates. See also our
preprints at https://doi.org/10.1101/2024.03.26.586769 and
https://doi.org/10.1101/2024.11.28.625862 Applications should include
a motivation letter, a CV, a list of publications, a statement about
research interests, as well as the names and contact details of at
least two referees. Applications (in the form of a single .pdf file)
should be sent to Patrick Tschopp (patrick.tschopp@unibas.ch); review
of applications will begin on January 1st 2025, and will continue until
the position is filled.

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.
