Job Description: The bioinformatics unit at IRCCS Casa Sollievo della Sofferenza - Mendel laboratory in Rome is looking for one young PhD bioinformatician with specific experience and/or interest in the analysis of transcriptomic data.

The candidate will be mainly in charge of developing research on a range of hot applications and projects, dealing with microarrays, RNA-Seq and miRNA-Seq data. Main activities will be: (i) data analysis (short-reads mapping, variants call and annotation, functional enrichment analysis of gene expression data); (ii) networks analysis and simulation (artificial knockout, redundancy and lethality analysis, gene set essentiality); (iii) developing of ad-hoc software solutions/routines on clusters of CPUs and GPUs.

The correct cultural background (training in Biology / Computer Science / Statistics or a mix of the three) and a strong interest in working with high throughput data analysis will be considered at the same level of specific experience in the above-mentioned fields.
Knowledge of molecular modeling and simulation and one of these languages: python, perl, R, Java, C++, C# is a golden plus. Good knowledge of Scientific English will be positively evaluated for this position, together with good presentation and teamwork skills.

A CV with one professional reference, details on educational background and of the biological and/or bioinformatic and/or data analysis skills and experience should be sent by email for a preliminary selection to: Tommaso Mazza, CSS-Mendel: t.mazza@css-mendel.it

Context
Casa Sollievo della Sofferenza is an Institute for hospitalization, care, and scientific research located in San Giovanni Rotondo, Italy. It integrates clinical assistance (with inpatient and outpatient facilities) and research. It has an affiliate institute, CSS-Mendel, located in Rome. Between the two sites, it employs over 100 researchers who focus on genetics. The Center is equipped with state of the art genomics technology (SOLiD 5500XL next generation sequencer, Illumina MiSeq, Affymetrix/Agilent microarray platforms, etc) as well as a dedicated high performance computing facility, a non-conventional workstation of GPUs and a short- and long-term storage disk.

Applications
Candidates should send:
• a cover letter explaining the role they would like to undertake within the Center, even if it is not listed in this job adv, stating clearly why they would be a good fit to the proposed role, and what they would bring to the Center in terms of expertise, ideas, talent;
• a CV including a list of publications;
• List of referees;

Uni Computing (formerly Uni BCCS) is a department of Uni Research, affiliated with the University of Bergen.

5 groups in this lab works on computational resources, methods, algorithms, and software.

Following two bioinformatics groups are:

The Computational Biology Unit (CBU) provides education and research in bioinformatics focused on functional genomics.

The Computational Ecology Unit (CEU) is basically deal with population fluctuations, behavioural patterns and the ways life cycles emerge.

1. Work to establish improved quantitative experimental assays (such as microarrays or differential in-gel electrophoresis) and
2. Development of modern computational methods (such as hierarchical probabilistic models or integration of heterogeneous data sources)
