by Pavlo Lutsik 05 Dec '18

05 Dec '18

Dear all, I would like to draw the attention of all current and graduated M.Sc. students to the International PhD Program of the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ): https://www.dkfz.de/en/phd-program/ The selection takes place twice a year with the upcoming deadline on Jan 5th. The program is highly competitive, and computational biologists are making pretty good chances nowadays. The centre, located at the core of the Heidelberg research campus, is an excellent institution within the Helmholtz Association, and is a home to more than 3000 scientists. I am representing the division of Cancer Epigenomics, where we have way too many exciting projects and data sets requiring bioinformatic expertise. We help in deciphering epigenetic mechanisms of cancer, but also develop new computational methods. In case you are interested in what we are doing use this link (https://www.dkfz.de/en/CanEpi/index.php) or just drop me a line and we can discuss the next steps. Please, spread the word to your colleagues who might be interested, but are not subscribed to this list.

Postdoc + PhD semantic integration/ontologies + Postdoc coordinator vacancies @Groningen
by Morris Swertz 08 Nov '18

08 Nov '18

Dear bioinformatics colleagues and friends, I am happy to announce three open positions at UMCG Groningen, Genomics Coordination Center (and we always are looking for scientific programmers so welcome open applications as well): *Postdoc semantic integration / ontologies* to lead our ‘FAIR’ research line towards integrated analysis of large biobanks and multi-center studies in (rare)disease. Big data holds huge promise to accelerate research in human health and disease, but biomedical data is very heterogeneous and fragmented impeding integrated analysis. You will research ontologies and linked data models and methods and develop smart data integration tools for large scale retrospective data integration and ‘federated’ analysis, considering the fact that health data is often privacy sensitive and involve security/anonymity constraints. https://t.co/8998FZ3e5D *PhD student in team of Postdoc above* https://t.co/Y7eCpHHYkf *Postdoc with scientific coordinator ambitions* to promote smooth operation of large European and National data science projects in the area of cohorts, (rare) disease, and multi-omics. You will facilitate collaboration between principle investigators, PhD students, data scientists, engineers and managers, highlight (research) opportunities, promote collaboration and coordinate project deliverables in a timely manner, drive internal and external communication including organisation and preparation of semi-annual and specific project meetings to ensure a smooth progress of the research. You will be part of a social, multi-site, multi-disciplinary team of project coordinators, researchers and team leaders who together coordinate all things happening between GCC and our partners. Depending on your background and ambitions you can also take the lead in scientific publications. https://t.co/0dLlLRhYKp Best wishes, Prof.Dr. Morris A.
