BioStar — Sat, 06 Feb 2021 21:25:09 -0600

Institut Pasteur de Tunis (IPT):
The IPT is a research institution founded in 1883. IPT is under the supervision of the Ministry of Health and is part of the Université El Manar of Tunis (Ministry of high Education). The missions of the institute are: Public Health Laboratory activities (PHL), Research on infectious diseases, and R/D on vaccines. Research programs are mainly oriented towards local health problems such as leishmaniais, viral hepatitis, and scorpion venoms. The group of Bioinformatics and Modelling of the IPT is hosted by the Laboratoire d’Immunopathologie Vaccinologie et Génétique Moléculaire (LIVGM), and exists since the beginning of 2005. Its present research activities include: genome annotation, EST clustering and modelling of the host/parasite response to Leishmania infection. It consists of two senior scientists, two PhD students and one MSc student

Centre de Biotechnology de Sfax (CBS):
Bioinformatics activity started at CBS in 2001 with the settingup of a research and service unit of bioinformatics. This unit currently includes one senior researcher, one engineer and four Phd students. Activities include sequence annotation (service) and three research programs: ab initio prediction of short eukaryote genes, statistical modelling by Bayesian networks approach of signal transduction pathways and statistical analysis of human sequence variation data (haplotype reconstruction and linkage disequilibrium). Activities of the Bioinformatics unit could be found at the website: http://www.cbs.rnrt.tn/ and the research activity report is available under request to Bioinformatics@cbs.rnrt.tn. Although the computing facilities are good, there is still a need for trained human resources to strengthen bioinformatics capacities at CBS, particularly in structural bioinformatics.

Job offer for a postdoctoral researcher in genomics / bioinformatics (2 years)

Fri, 22 Oct 2021 04:44:33 -0500

Ongoing research in the group of Karine Van Doninck involves topics at the core of
evolutionary biology, including the evolution of sex, genome maintenance,
recombination and extreme stress resistance on different eukaryotic systems,
including rotifers, amoeba and Corbicula clams. We are employing different tools
(including experimental ecology, population genetics, phylogeny, comparative
genomics, transcriptomics, bioinformatics, molecular and cellular biology) to study
evolutionary processes at the level of populations, both experimental and natural, and
genomes.

Offer
We offer a full-time contract for two years. The contract starts between October 2021
and December 2021. The position involves no or extremely light teaching load, if the
candidate is interested. Salaries are competitive at the European level. The recruited
person will benefit from the Belgian social insurance scheme (health care, etc.) without
additional expenses.

Profile
Applicants are expected to show outstanding commitment to research and must have
obtained a PhD by the start of the position. A strong expertise in genomics is required.
More specifically, solid competences in bioinformatics (e.g. scripting pipelines) and in
genome evolution are needed. Knowledge or interest regarding recombination,
metazoan evolution, phylogenomics and population genomics is an added-value.

Application
Applications should be submitted via email to karine.van.doninck@ulb.be. The
application package should contain the following documents:
- A curriculum vitae with the complete list of publications
- A cover letter mentioning why the candidate is interested in the position
- Minimum 2 recommendation letters
Interviews: Interviews will be conducted with the selected candidates. Selected
candidates could also be invited to give a seminar to MBE ULB.

Human Genome Meeting 2014, Geneva, Switzerland

Fri, 20 Sep 2013 12:36:44 -0500

The spectacular advances of the last few years resulted in the rapid analysis of the genome sequence of each individual. The biomedical world is now faced with the enormous challenges of assigning pathogenicity to each genomic variant, the functional analysis of the genome of each individual, and the accurate and detailed phenotypic characterization. Advances in these challenges are likely to fundamentally change the medical practice in a global scale.

This 2014 HUGO Meeting in Geneva will be a Forum for discussions on innovative approaches, and proposals to tackle the anticipated challenges.

Time : 27 April 2014 - 30 April 2014

Rotifers Lab

Wed, 08 Mar 2023 23:23:14 -0600

For scientists in the MBL’s Gribble Lab, the rotifer (Brachionus manjavacas) is used as a model organism to study evolution, stress responses, the biology of aging, and maternal effects. Rotifers are small, easy to grow in the lab, have a short lifespan, and share many of their genes with humans. That makes them ideal specimens in which to address questions relevant to human health as well as understand basic biological and evolutionary processes. Brachionus rotifers produces eggs that can be completely dried and frozen for decades, then hatch within a day when exposed to water and light.
