    BACKGROUND

    Major objective of the ‘Genetic Variation, Haplotypes & Genetics of Complex Disease’ Group (Dept. Lehrach is the generation of haploid sequences, with a particular focus on the MHC region and haploid genomes. Approaches rely on next generation sequencing (NGS) data production and analysis, the use of fosmid libraries and advanced bioinformatics.

    RESPONSIBILITIES

    The successful candidate will develop programs for the integration & analysis of high-volume NGS data in the established pipeline, in particular for assembly and analysis of haplotype sequences such as MHC. In addition, he/she will be responsible for programming novel tools for the advanced analysis of genetic variation data.

    REQUIREMENTS

    The ideal candidate should have:
    • Ph.D. / M.Sc. in bioinformatics, molecular biology, statistical genetics or related field
    • Strong programming skills in a UNIX/Linux environment (python, Java, Perl, R or C/C++) & relational databases (MySQL)
    • Experience in large scale DNA sequence analyses and State-of-the-Art genetic variation analysis

    TERMS

    The position is open immediately until May 31, 2011, with the possibility of extension.

    SALARY & COMPENSATION: TVöD E13
