Studentship and Traineeship in Bioinformatics

Applications are invited on plain paper from suitable candidates for Studentship and Traineeship (One each) at Bioinformatics Sub-Center as detailed below:

1. Studentship: Studentship is for those who have completed M. Sc. Degrees in Life Science.

Number of seats : One

Duration : Six months

Eligibility : Passed M.Sc. degree in Life Sciences.

Fellowship : Rs. 5000/- (Five thousand only) per month

2. Traineeship: Traineeship is for those who have completed M. Sc. Degrees in Life Science/Registered Ph. D. student in Life Sciences.

Number of seats : One

Duration : Six months

Eligibility : Passed M.Sc. degree in Life Sciences/ Registered Ph. D. student in Life Sciences

Fellowship : Rs. 5000/- (Five thousand only) per month

Preferences will be given to person who has experience in Bioinformatics and Computer
sciences. The application along with detailed bio-data should reach the undersigned, on or before 25th August 2014. Both, the studentship and the traineeship are temporary, will be discontinued after the six months from the date of Joining. It may be discontinued in-between without any notice, if the work is not found satisfactory.

It was first developed to transfer annotations between different genome assembly versions. However, it can also transfer annotations between strains and even different species, like Plasmodium chabaudi onto P. berghei, between different Leishmania species or Salmonella enterica onto other Salmonella serotypes. RATT is able to transfer any entries present on a reference sequence, such as the systematic id or an annotator's notes; such information would be lost in a de novo annotation.

db2db allows for conversions of identifiers from one database to other database identifiers or annotations. To use db2db select the input type of your data, changing the input type automatically changes the output options to the ones specific for the input selected. Then select one or more output types and add your identifiers in the ID list box. Set the remove duplicate values to 'No' if you do not want duplicates to be removed. Clicking on submit then returns a table of your inputs matched against all the outputs selected in the exact order as entered. Results can be limited to a particular taxon by entering it's Taxon ID. The performance will vary widely depending on the number of outputs and the options selected. Conversions to a single output with the default options should complete in a few seconds
