The postdoctoral researcher will contribute to this project using
a combination of evolutionary and comparative genomics, as well as a
diverse set of bioinformatic approaches for data analysis and integration
(e.g., transcriptomics, genomics, phenotypic data). This position offers
a unique opportunity to integrate diverse state-of-the-art genomic and
phenotypic datasets across different model organisms to understand the
role of genes, molecular pathways in the origin of complex diseases.

CINV provides a highly collaborative and multidisciplinary environment
using a variety of computational and experimental approaches,
including genetically tractable animal models as well as expertise in
genetics, behavior, glia-neuron communication, metabolism, biophysics,
genomics, bioinformatics, host-microbe communication, and biomolecular
modelling. The new postdoc will be part of one of our labs which focuses
more generally on the intersection between molecular evolution and
disease biology.

Required qualifications are a PhD in evolutionary biology, computational
biology, bioinformatics, or closely related fields. Candidates must have
excellent verbal and written communication skills (working language
is English), as well as an established record of productivity (e.g.,
at least one previous peer-reviewed publication). Candidates with a
past record of publications in bioinfomatics, computational biology,
population genetics or evolutionary genomics are strongly preferred. Ideal
candidates should have experience in analyzing genomic and phenomic
data, performing comparative evolution or population genomic analyses,
as well as in collaborating with experimentalists.

Interested candidates should first contact Evandro Ferrada at
. Please include the following: (1) a cover
letter addressing your interest in the position and how your expertise
meets the position requirements, (2) a CV, (3) contact information of
at least 2 references. A short online interview will follow to discuss
specific proposals. Candidate materials will be reviewed as soon as
possible until the position is filled.

Novel diagnostic platform for detection of Osteoarthritis

I invite applications from highly motivated individuals to join my laboratory as a PhD student in Systems Biology at the University of Calgary McCaig Institute for Bone and Joint Health. This project is aimed at characterizing the networks of physical (protein-protein) interactions underlying inflammatory processes in patients with Osteoarthritis and how this differs from patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis and normal individuals. This work will eventually lead to the development of a novel diagnostic platform for the non-invasive and accurate detection of early Osteoarthritis. The selected candidate will use state-of-the-art computational methodologies to systematically analyze proteomic data, and develop /implement new algorithms to identify protein and functional interaction networks from high throughput experimental data. The individual will also benefit by working closely with experts at the UofC and UofA through an AIHS Alberta Osteoarthritis Team Grant which includes experts from all pillars of health research. The candidate will also be supported to attend bioinformatics workshops and conferences to advance and disseminate their research.
Qualifications: The ideal candidate will have a Master’s degree in Computational Biology, Bioinformatics, or equivalent with strong background knowledge of the Biological Sciences, Biochemistry, and Microbiology. The individual should additionally have experience in handling high-throughput data sets as well as programming skills. The candidate will be registered as a PhD student in Dr. Krawetz’s laboratory, located in the new state-of-the-art Health Research Innovation Centre at the UofC. The individual will have strong verbal and written skills and the ability to work efficiently in a team environment.

In addition to the outstanding research opportunities available in this setting, students also enjoy the many cultural and sporting amenities provided in the city of Calgary, and can take advantage of the unparalleled skiing and hiking in the Rocky Mountains that are less than an hour away.

Candidates must be academically competitive and will be expected to apply for external funding. The stipend is $25,000/yr. For outstanding PhD students, internal top-up award opportunities are available on a competitive basis. If interested in joining the lab, please contact Dr. Krawetz directly at rkrawetz@ucalgary.ca and provide the following information:

- Short cover letter explaining your interest in the lab
- Resume
- Scanned copy of transcript or listing of course grades
- Names and contact information for two individuals who will be willing to provide letters of reference
