    DESCRIPTION

    Postdoctoral Fellows and/or Professional Research Assistants in Biomedical Language Processing, Knowledge-based systems and Semantic Web technology.

    The Hunter lab at the Center for Computational Pharmacology at University of Colorado School of Medicine seeks applicants for full-time research positions related to a recent NIH grant to do technology development for biomedical knowledge-bases.

    The project involves information extraction from biomedical texts and the creation and use of a molecular biology knowledge-base derived from that information.

    REQUIREMENTS

    Postdoctoral fellowship applicants should have research experience in bioinformatics, and PRA applicants must have significant programming experience and a working knowledge of molecular biology. For all applicants, the following areas will be used in assessing candidates:
    • Familiarity with the Gene Ontology, and other Open Biological Ontology projects.
    • Natural language processing experience, particularly knowledge-based NLP.
    • Machine learning experience, particularly as related to statistical natural language processing.
    • Knowledge representation and reasoning experience, particularly using Protege or similar frame-based systems.
    • Familarity with Semantic Web concepts and applications
    • Programming skills, particularly in Java and Common Lisp.
    The positions are full time, and include benefits. Funding for these positions runs through September 2007, and may continue beyond then. Compensation will be commensurate with experience.
