Bioinformatics - Postdoctoral Training Fellowship for Molecular Biologist
Submitted by Boris Steipe; posted on Saturday, June 1, 2002
Bioinformatics - Postdoctoral Training Fellowship for Molecular Biologist
The Steipe Lab - University of Toronto
If you are a recently graduated molecular or cell biologist, with an
interest in systems biology and considering to pursue a career in
bioinformatics, this position may be for you.
We have an opening, to be filled immediately, in a Genome Canada funded
platform project on bioinformatics infrastructure.
Within this project, your role will be to provide the biological context
for the software development that is contributed by our collaborators.
Thisincludes analysing how genome-scale wet lab projects can contribute
to modern concepts of systems biology, defining approaches and
requirements to achieve such project objectives and structuring them, so
they can be addressed with computational methods. We expect you to
rapidly develop a basic, general understanding of the tools and resources
available to bioinformatics and apply your in-depth knowledge of biology
to creative solutions.
Since this project has a strong interdisciplinary component, excellent
communication skills are essential. You will either have a basic
understanding of working with UNIX systems, programming in C/C++, and
scripting in Perl or Python, or be willing to undergo a preliminary
training in basic bioinformatics computer skills. More training will be
on-the-job. Your graduate expertise might be from signalling, development,
transcriptional control, molecular mechanisms of disease, reverse genetics,
or other topics that have given you an understanding of the complexity of
biology at molecular resolution.
The Steipe Lab is in the Department of Biochemistry and the Department of
Molecular Genetics and Microbiology, University of Toronto, and part of
the Program in Proteomics and Bioinformatics. For more information on the
lab please visit our Web site:

Please consider the conditions outlined on
http://biochemistry.med.utoronto.ca/steipe/lab/openings.html
before you apply.
Please contact Boris Steipe by e-mail to boris.steipe[at]utoronto.ca, send a
CV and indicate your availability for an interview.
