Description:

Post-doctoral research fellow, bioinformatics 3yrs+
We need an outstanding scientist excited about integrated approaches for the analysis of heterogeneous data (expression profiles, phosphorylation proteomics, sequence analysis results, and various heterogeneous databases). Experimental data are generated by experienced colleagues in house.

Our group focusses on the challenge of extracting structured insight from genome-scale experiments. Besides working with colleagues in the group, established and novel analysis tools will be applied to the study of host-parasite interactions (biocontrol project, http://bioinf.boku.ac.at/biogen.php).

While travel is not necessary, we have active collaborations with Cambridge, and encourage exchange with our partners. Vienna is a thriving international city with a vibrant scientific environment and excellent quality of life.
We offer internationally competitive conditions and benefits. The position is available immediately and has an initial tenure of three years.

You need a PhD in a technical or scientific field and must have experience in at least one of these three areas:

1) Classical or probabilistic analysis of DNA or protein sequences,
2) Integration of bioinformatics databases and analysis tools,
3) Analysis / interpretation of microarray data.

You will be responsible for the development of novel integrated approaches in the deep bioinformatics analysis of heterogeneous data sets, applying and adapting existing systems as well as developing novel components as needed. Solid skills and experience in software development under Unix (e.g., Matlab or R, C/C++ or Java, Perl or Python, Bash … ) are therefore required.
An interest in interdisciplinary work and excellent communication skills in English are essential. (Working knowledge of German is a plus).

We look forward to receiving your application. Applications will be considered until the position has been filled and should be addressed to David Kreil. Please include a cover letter, a curriculum vitae, a list of publications, and the names of three referees, who should be asked to send references to us directly. Feel free to please contact us (http://bioinf.boku.ac.at/newweb/pages/contact.php) if you have any questions.
