Job Description

The Global Trait Discovery Informatics (GTDI) group located at the DuPont Knowledge Centre (DKC), Hyderabad, India is currently seeking applications for a highly motivated computational biologist. The GTDI group contributes to research programs in plant biotechnology at the DKC as well as across research centers located in DuPont Pioneer, Johnston, Iowa and at the DuPont Experimental Station in Wilmington, Delaware.

We are looking for candidates who have experience in analysis of high-throughput -omics datasets. The researcher will be primarily responsible for analyzing diverse -omics datatypes, such as transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics and actively contribute towards building streamlined solutions.

The candidate will be part of a diverse team of experimental biologists, computational biologists and software developers. A critical aspect of this position involves working with global teams across multiple locations and will require effective project coordination and communication skills. This is an exciting opportunity for candidates with strong data driven skills, who want to work at the interface of computational and experimental biology and contribute towards scientific discovery.

Responsibilities

·Integrate and analyze multiple datatypes in the context of experimental observations with a goal towards formulating testable hypothesis.

·Understanding the research questions from experimental biologists and formulate relevant in silico analyses.

·Establish and implement systematic analysis workflows starting from processing of raw data to biological interpretation.

·Critically analyze a wide variety of experimental data with a view to solving the underlying research questions.

·Identify and generate datasets for scientific testing and evaluation of algorithms.

Qualifications

PhD in computational biology, bioinformatics, population genetics, complex systems, computer sciences or any relevant physical or mathematical sciences, with experience in analyzing diverse -omics datasets.

Opportunity for young Bioinformatics Professionals to make a career in the area of Intellectual Property

CSIR has set up a Unit for Research and Development of Information Products (CSIRURDIP) at Pune to work in the area of scientific informatics. One of the major focus areas of research work at CSIR-URDIP is PATENT INFORMATICS. With the increasing applications of Bioinformatics in the areas of life sciences industry such as Agriculture and Health Care (Diagnostics and Drugs), the output of research in these area is being protected by different forms of Intellectual Property rights. Realizing the importance of IP in the Bioinformatics field, Department of Biotechnology (DBT) has sanctioned a project on “Development, Facilitation and Harvesting of Bioinformatics related Intellectual Property” at CSIR-URDIP.

The project will involve application of Patent Informatics tools and techniques to Bioinformatics (including creation of patent landscapes, preparation of techno-legal reports of patentability, freedom to operate studies) to help protect IPRs and develop and conduct training programmes on IPRs related to Bioinformatics.

CSIR-URDIP invites applications from young Bioinformatics professionals to work on this emerging area which offers challenging opportunities and attractive career possibilities in future.

Position I: Research Associate

No of Positions: One

Consolidated amount Payable: = Rs 26,400.00

Qualification: PhD in Bioinformatics. In exceptional cases, candidature of M. Tech. candidates with First class in Bioinformatics with three years of relevant work experience will also be considered.

Job requirement: The prospective candidate will be expected to identify patents/scientific literature in field of Bioinformatics, evaluate them Vis a Vis other patents in fields and come up landscape / FTO / Patentability reports.

Age Limit: 35 years.

The candidates meeting the above criteria may appear for walk in interview at their cost on Monday 13th July 2015 at 02:00 p.m. with the CV and supporting documents (original plus copies) at the following address: CSIR Unit or Research and Development of Information Products (URDIP), "Tapovan" S.No. 113 & 114, Near NCL Colony Baner Side Gate, NCL Estate, Pashan Road, Pune-411008, Maharashtra, India
