PHD STUDENTSHIP: BIOINFORMATICS & SYSTEMS BIOLOGY

http://www.rothamsted.bbsrc.ac.uk/careers/phds/StudentshipsInformaticsBI
O.html

In this BBSRC-funded studentship you will be using a novel data
integration software platform and developing new bioinformatics methods
to investigate how systems biology approaches can be used to identify
and characterise the genes and processes that influence the productivity
of energy crops.

RESEARCH PROJECT LEADER	DATA INTEGRATION (REF:1033)

A computer science post-graduate is required to provide leadership in a
BBSRC research project team developing data integration methods for
systems biology. This is a senior appointment and would ideally suit a
post-doctoral computer scientist with a background in research or
application of data integration or semantic web technologies. Closing
date for applications is 29th February.

BIOINFORMATICS SCIENTIST DATABASE INTEGRATION (REF: 1034)

A bioinformatics software engineer is required to help develop our data
integration system (ondex.sourceforge.net) and work with biologists to
create novel bioinformatics applications in areas as genome annotation
and the analysis and interpretation of genomics experiments. You should
be familiar with developing bioinformatics applications in Java using a
mixed Windows/Linux environment.  Closing date for applications is 29th
February.

ABOUT ROTHAMSTED RESEARCH
Rothamsted Research is the leading UK Research Institute focusing on the
science underpinning the sustainability of arable and bioenergy crops.
We are located in Harpenden, Hertfordshire, located approximately 30
miles north of central London (25 minutes by train). Our research uses
molecular genetic, genomic and metabolomic techniques for the
development of systems approaches to biological research.  A recent
award from the BBSRC gives us the opportunity to further develop our
data integration platform (the ONDEX system
http://ondex.sourceforge.net) for use in systems biology research in an
exciting collaboration with the Universities of Manchester, Newcastle
and Edinburgh.
