Dear all,
We are looking for an open-minded and enthusiastic bioinformatics
postdoc candidate for a three year project on developing computational
methods for the analysis of complex genomes. The project will follow up
on a recently developed method of the group that assembles individual
haplotypes of tetraploid genomes using a combination of bulk long-read
and single gamete genome sequencing (Sun /et al., /2021, bioRxiv,
https://doi.org/10.1101/2021.05.15.444292). The candidate will develop
computational methods to genotype samples based on individual haplotypes
of any genome and apply these methods to analyze the inheritance of such
haplotypes in recombinant pollen genomes of potato cultivars. It is
expected that the haplotype-based genotyping methods developed in this
project will be applicable beyond the field of plant genomics (e.g.
human genomics).
Applicants should hold a PhD degree in bioinformatics or a similar field
in computational biology. We are specifically searching for a candidate
with strong programming skills (Java, C++, Python), experience in the
analysis of high-throughput sequencing data, and the ability to make use
of high-performance computational clusters. Good oral and writing skills
in English are a must. The Schneeberger group is located at the Faculty
of Biology of the Ludwig-Maximilians University in Munich, with a part
of the group working at the Max Planck Institute (MPI) for Plant
Breeding Research in Cologne, Germany. The candidate for this project
will be based at the MPI in Cologne. Please find the attached PDF for
additional details about the position and how to apply.
Kind regards,
Raúl Wijfjes
Schneeberger Group, Ludwig-Maximilians University Munich, Germany
