BIOFINFORMATICS PhD/Postdoc on EPIGENOMICS (ULB, Brussels) Job description: PhD and Postdoctoral positions are available for successful candidates to join a dynamic team at the Laboratory of Cancer Epigenetics (Université Libre de Bruxelles). Our group is interested to study transcriptomics and epigenomics in health and diseases. The candidates, which will work within a bioinformatic environment, will tackle integrative analysis of higth-throughput transcriptomics and epigenomics data sets generated using cutting edge next-generation sequencing plateforms (available in host lab). Both fundamental and clinical aspects of human diseases will be addressed. Postdoc position is funded for 2 years, with possible extension. Screening of applications begins immediately and continues until an outstanding candidate is selected. Profile : Applicants should demonstrated proficiency in programming, and statistics and/or machine learning. Experience with sequence data, genome-wide data sets (ChIPSeq, RNASeq,…) will be assets. How to apply?; Informal enquiries, CV (+ ranking and grades during studies) and names of two referees should be send to: Dr. Matthieu Defrance (defrance(a)bigre.ulb.ac.be) and Dr. François Fuks (ffuks(a)ulb.ac.be) Laboratory of Cancer Epigenetics, Faculty of Medicine, Free University of Brussels, 808 route de Lennik, Brussels, Belgium.

talk by A. Godzik

Dear all, You may be interested in the following talk: Understanding functional disorder in proteins – examples from a stem cell regulatory network Adam Godzik In many proteins, the interplay between order and disorder is critical for their function. In the Joint Center for Structural Genomics we set out to map out and understand this balance in a group of transcription factors and regulatory complexes involved in stem cell differentiation. Many proteins in this network appear to be composed entirely of disordered regions, but upon more detailed analysis we started identifying small ordered "kernels" of order, possibly being switched on (and off) with post-translational modifications. With few of these "kernels" now confirmed by experimental structure determination we are applying these experiences to a broader range of human proteins Date: Nov, 15th VUB Room D.005, 12:00 Regards, Gipsi ---- Gipsi Lima-Mendez Bioinformatics and (Eco-)Systems Biology Faculty of Sciences and Bioengineering Sciences Vrije Universiteit Brussel VUB - MINT/BSB Pleinlaan 2 B-1050 Brussels Belgium Tel: +32-02-629 19 18 Fax: +32-02-629 19 02 gipsi.lima(a)vub.ac.be
