Computational Biologist Postdoc Fellow - Microbial Genomic and Metagenomics Datasets - 80268
Organization: GN-Genomics

The Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute- DOE JGI (a division of the Lawrence Berkeley National Lab) has an exciting Postdoctoral Research opportunity available for a Computational Biologist Postdoc. Will directly leverage JGI computational resources and available data for massive-scale genomic research and sequence-based science of relevance to the DOE. Will participate in the development of novel methods for enabling big data mining, as well as for the identification of novel viruses across thousands of metagenomic samples. Will also participate in the comparative analysis of microbial genomic and metagenomics data sets available through the IMG system. Will work independently and contributing as a member of a dynamic,multidisciplinary team of biologists, bioinformaticians, computer scientists and software developers. Positions report to the Prokaryotic Super Program head.

Specific Job Duties
Essential
• Interrogation and interpretation of microbial genomes and metagenomes.
• Application of standard bioinformatics tools for the analysis of genomic/metagenomic data.
• Design and implementation of new approaches for genome/metagenome analysis..
• Publish in peer review journals and deliver scientific presentations at scientific meetings

Marginal
• Development of software for organization and handling of metagenomic data and automation of analytical procedures.
• Develop and present updates and reports at group meetings.
• Support the development of user interface for navigation and data comparisons across thousands of genomic/metagenomic samples

Qualifications
• Recent PhD (within the last 4 years) in Biology, Bioinformatics or a related field.
• Experience in any of the following areas: viral genomics, metagenomics, microbial ecology.
• Strong experience with UNIX utilities and filesystems.
• Strong experience in scripting tools in order to mine data files.
• Good experience with processing and analysis of genomic/metagenomic data.
• Good experience with using standard bioinformatics tools and databases.
• Knowledge Biology/Biochemistry and understanding of key and complex biological concepts (genes, pathways, microbial phylogeny).
• Familiarity with molecular biology, comparative genomics, metagenomics, and microbial ecology.
• Ability to independently carry out creative research with tenacity and of the highest quality standards.
