Opportunity: Group Leader - COMPUTATIONAL BIOLOGY / BIOINFORMATICS (#HD_00085) @ EMBL--Heidelberg, Germany
Submitted by EMBL HR Recruitment; posted on Sunday, May 22, 2011
BACKGROUND
The European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) is one of the highest ranked scientific research organizations in the world. The Headquarters Laboratory is located in Heidelberg (Germany) and the outstations are in Grenoble (France), Hamburg (Germany), Hinxton (UK) and Monterotondo (Italy).
RESPONSIBILITIES
The Structural and Computational Biology Unit seeks to recruit an outstanding research group leader in computational biology or bioinformatics working in areas such as structural bioinformatics (e.g. modeling of protein complexes and their interactions and/or dynamics in a cellular context), image analysis/visualization (e.g. reading out data from GFP screens, E-tomograms or visualizing a virtual cell atlas), cheminformatics (e.g. chemical-protein-network analysis), systems bioinformatics (e.g. tissue modeling, analysis network perturbations) or transcriptional regulation/epigenetics (e.g. chromatin modification analysis).
It is desirable that the new research focus complements and is synergistic to existing activities in the unit. The vision of the unit is to integrate the various structural biology approaches (Xray, NMR, electron microscopy, tomography and light microscopy) with computational, chemical and systems biology.
Further information about research in the Structural and Computational Biology Unit and at EMBL can be found at the EMBL web page.
