List of Bioinformatics Vacancy, Jobs, Opportunity websites

Jitendra Narayan — Tue, 12 Nov 2013 20:04:28 -0600

Bioinformatics cover wide area of biology, and indulge in almost all sort of science related work. Bioinformatician give strong emphasis on open access to biological information as well as Free and Open Source software!!

There are several jobs opening in bioinformatics all around the world, but many of them do not get proper attention due to lack of advertisements, or social connectivity. This bookmark is created for an academic, non-academic, scientists and budding researchers to help and updates the bioinformatics/computational biology jobs links of all know websites around the world.

I also love to stream the live bioinformatics or Computational biology jobs updates using Twitter https://twitter.com/search?q=bioinformatics%20jobs&src=typd

Find out here about exciting job opportunities in the life sciences.

Please add well known bioinformatics jobs websites below in comment section.

What Junk DNA? It’s an Operating System

Rahul Agarwal — Mon, 19 Aug 2013 15:24:26 -0500

The report adds to growing experimental support for the idea that all that extra stuff in the human genes, once referred to as “junk DNA,” is more than functionless, space-filling material that happens to make up nearly 98% of the genome. The paper adds to a growing body of knowledge establishing a considerable role for this material in the regulation of gene expression and its potential role in human disease.

University of Hyderabad
Repository for Tomato Genomic Resources
Department of Plant Sciences
Bioinformatics Position in Tomato Functional Genomics

At the Repository for Tomato Genomics Resources, we are working on Tomato Functional Genomics, using TILLING, Insertional Mutagenesis, proteomics, metabolomics approaches to study fruit ripening in tomato. The current aims of the group include using reverse and forward genetics strategies to isolate tomato mutants delayed in ripening, having high lycopene and folate content in tomato fruits and analysis of light and hormonal signal transduction pathways. For recent publications of the group see (Plant Physiol 161: 2085–2101, Plant Physiol 156: 1424-1438; Molecular Plant 3: 854-869; Plant Methods 6: 3; Plant Methods 5:18; Plant Signaling and Behavior 5:11.).

Currently we have one position available in the projects awarded to Prof. R.P. Sharma funded by Dept of Biotechnology. The qualification for this Position is as follows:

Research Assistant: Applicants should have experience in networking using R language and should be able to develop networks using the transcriptome, proteome and metabolite data sets. M.Tech. in Bioinformatics is required. The selected candidate would be paid Rs. 13,000/-pm- consolidated.

Candidates interested in above positions should send a one page statement clearly explaining how their skills are relevant to the position. The candidates should also enclose detailed CV and the name/email id for three referees. The candidates can send their application by email at rameshwar.sharma@uohyd.ac.in and y.sreelakshmi@uohyd.ac.in on or before December 10th, 2013. The position is purely temporary in nature. Shortlisted candidates would be called for interview. No TA/DA would be provided for attending the interview. We also have openings for CSIR-NET JRF candidates for pursuing PhD in above research areas.

We are interested in the study of complex systems in living organisms. Novel views augmenting the classical gene by gene approaches are required to overcome the engineered redundancies and combinatorial effects prevalent in higher eukaryotes. We therefore combine work to establish improved quantitative experimental assays, such as microarrays or differential in-gel electrophoresis, and development of modern computational methods, such as hierarchical probabilistic models or integration of heterogeneous data sources, focussed by biological studies in our laboratory and collaborations.

Highlights of our research include:

Optimization of microarray design, probe signal interpretation
Advanced models and tools for expression profiling
State-of-the-art applications and integrated analyses
