We were asked to forward the following announcement

------------------
Post-doc in Computational Biology at Orsay, France

  Pr. Joël Janin
  Yeast Structural Genomics, IBBMC Bd. 430
  Université Paris-Sud, 91405-Orsay

  The research program is a general analysis of the protein environment of
  ligand molecules in the Protein Data Bank aiming to (a) compare and
  classify binding sites and (b) develop applications to molecules of
  pharmacological interest in the frame of the SuMo software package
  (http://www.medit.fr/products-page2-sumo.html). The physical chemical
  properties of the sites and the conformation changes related to ligand
  binding will be considered. In parallel, the person will participate in
  setting up a Web server for these applications. The program is a
  collaboration with MEDIT (http://www.medit.fr/), a French start-up
  specializing in molecular modeling and drug discovery. It is part of
  POPS, a project aiming to develop high-performance computing systems up
  to 1 PetaFlops (1015 operations per second) and supported by the
  competitiveness cluster SYSTEM at TIC PARIS-REGION
  (http://www.systematic-paris-region.org/).

  Time schedule: 18 months starting no later than Dec. 1, 2007
  Expertise required: Computational biology, computational chemistry,
  computer science
