=========== Computational/wet Biology on the French Riviera ===========
Feb 1997
The Laboratory of Structural & Genetic Information, (EP 91-CNRS)
of the Institute of Structural Biology & Microbiology (IBSM)
offers immediate doctoral and post-doctoral opportunities in the
following areas of computational biology:
- 1. Analysis of ESTs and Genomic sequence data in Plants
- 2. Analysis of microbial genomes
- 3. Human genomics and human paleogenetics (study on "ancient DNA")
A solid background in Plant and/or Microbial biology is needed for
positions 1 & 2, as well as a working knowledge of the usual sequence
analysis tools (GenBank, Blast, etc). Ideal candidates would have
been previously involved in a sequencing project.
Candidates for position 3 should be prepared to equally divide their
work into wet and "in silico" biology. Again a working knowledge of
sequence analysis techniques is needed.
The laboratory is already well equipped in term of hardware, software
and
basic bioinformatics skills. We are now looking to reinforce our
biological/
genomics potential to take advantage of the computer systems now in
place.
