Dear list,

 

We are looking for a Post-doc / PhD to set up management and analysis of
next generation sequencing data in our genomics team. The successful
candidate will process and manage sequencing data, solicit and perform
data analysis of genome sequencing experiments, implement existing
analysis pipelines and associated data flows.

 

You should have a degree in bioinformatics, molecular biology, or
statistical genomics. You are a team worker with an excellent network
and/or networking skills with prior peer-reviewed publications in this
field. Proven computer programming proficiency and quantitative data
analysis capabilities (in C#/C++, SQL, PERL, R) are a given.
"Knowledge of sequencing-based high-throughput methodologies or genomics
"Experience in moving and handling large amounts of (scientific) data
reliably and efficiently
"Experience with a database framework such as caBIG or alike 
Other useful skills would be:
"Experience with next-generation sequencing data analysis and
statistical methods 
"Experience with array data, especially chromosomal copy number
"Experience with HTML, CSS, and Javascript and related web based tools
"Experience with grid computing (LSF,SunGrid, etc.)

 

Salary level 10 (2388 tot 3786 euro gross income).

*                         6.75% end-of-year payment and 8% holiday

We offer a young and dynamic environment in health care covering an
active research group in genomics, biostatistics and bioinformatics.
Your position is at the VU University Medical Center,

Department of Pathology. Background info
http://www.vumc.com/afdelingen/microarrays/ and
http://www.vumc.com/afdelingen/Pathology-Tumorprofiling .

 

The department of Pathology at the VU University Medical Center (VUMC)
performs internationally recognized research in genomics, oncogenesis
and immunology. VUMC houses state of the art technological facilities
for genomics, including a Micro Array Core Facility and an
OncoProteomics laboratory. In the past 10 years genomics have caused a
world-wide molecular biological revolution in which the VUMC Micro Array
Core Facility has played an important role. Next generation sequencing
(or massively parallel sequencing) is the next step in genome research.
Research performed in our academic hospital has a strong translational
character. In that regard at VUMC we have implemented, arrays, as a
genomic technique, for diagnostics in our clinical genetics department
and for classification and treatment of different types of cancer.
