Opportunity: 3-6 month Summer Sabbatical: BIOINFORMATICS of Molecular Ageing Data @ Univ. of Rostock--Rostock, Germany
Submitted by Georg Fuellen; posted on Wednesday, October 07, 2009
BACKGROUND:
The University of Rostock is building up and strengthening expertise in Ageing research, e.g. within the department ’Aging Sciences and Humanities’ that is part of the newly established ’Interdisciplinary Faculty’, in line with the state focus area ’Gesundheitsland Mecklenburg Vorpommern’ and in cooperation with the Max-Planck-Institute for Demographic Research. More specifically, you will be hosted in the ’Institute for Biostatistics and Informatics in Medicine and Ageing Research’. The new director of the institute is a bioinformatician with a focus on phylogeny/evolution and a strong interest in Ageing Research. The ’Molecular Ageing special interest group’ in Rostock also includes the well-known systems biology group of Olaf Wolkenhauer, and several wet-lab groups.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
A 3-6 month Summer Sabbatical is available for a life scientist with experience in molecular ageing research. You will work in a dry-lab environment, with bioinformatics & systems biology folks who have an intense interest in ageing & collaborations with experimentalists across the University. Depending on your qualification and experience, your roles and duties may include:
- To define and pursue a data analysis task in a colloborative effort of wet-lab ageing research and in-silico analysis, for example of microarray and other high-throughput data, of population genetics data, and/or of signalling network / molecular pathway data,
- To connect your research program in molecular ageing to bioinformatics / systems biology,
- To co-supervise 1-2 graduate students in their startup phase, with the perspective of a long-term collaboration,
- To provide support towards establishing a long-term perspective for experimental and/or clinical molecular ageing research in Rostock.
SALARY & BENEFITS:
Renumeration will depend on qualification; we seek a postdoc or a senior scientist. Resources allocated to the sabbatical include a reimbursement of reasonable travel expenses. In the summer, the Baltic Coast is the number one (!) vacation area in Germany, with a very pleasant climate and a wide variety of recreational opportunities.
HOW TO APPLY:
Please send an application in one PDF file if possible.
