    Senior Bioinformatics Developer

    The Human Genome Sequencing Center (HGSC) at Baylor College of Medicine seeks an enthusiastic individual to work with software in a rapidly evolving research environment to support the advance of next generation sequencing technology and genomics research.

    As one of three large-scale sequencing centers funded by the National Institutes of Health, HGSC provides a unique opportunity to work with cutting-edge genomic scientists, and new clinical sequencing initiatives.

    Responsibilities:
    *Perform analysis, design, implementation, documentation and unit testing of software for the standard pipelined analysis of next generation sequencing data including large dataset integration.
    *Participate in the design, implementation, testing, and deployment of extensions of the existing production QC and analysis systems, as well as new versions of them.
    *Provide support of the existing production sequence QC and analysis systems, including the resolution of custom user and data retrieval requests.
    *Follow prescribed practices for software version control, testing, and release engineering.
    *Apply analytical skills and creativity to solve diverse and challenging problems.
    *Communicate regularly with customers and supervisory staff about plans, designs and progress.
    *Ability to prioritize, organize and delegate various tasks on projects.
    *Present technical and analytical status in weekly meetings and contribute to publications.

    Required: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or Biological Sciences. Preferred: Master's degree in domain informatics (computational biology, computational chemistry, bioinformatics, clinical informatics).

    Required: Three years of experience in bioinformatics software development or a Master's degree in Computer Science or Biological Sciences and one year of domain-relevant science experience in biology, genetics, physics, statistics, or health sciences.

    Strong computational/programming skills; including extensive experience with the following: UNIX environment; Clustered computing: (MOAB/Torque, PBS, or LSF familiarity) and parallelization in a cluster environment; Next-generation analysis toolkits (PICARD, GATK, Samtools, etc.). Advanced skills in two programming languages including Ruby, Java, or Perl.

    Preferences:
    *Familiarity with multi-processing/threading methods, and workflow/pipeline tools.
    *Experience producing code documentation.
    *Exposure to statistical analysis of large datasets.
    *Experience integrating software with LIMS.
    *Ability to handle and prioritize multiple software requirements.
    *Ability to function independently and solve technically complex problems.

    16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
    by SEQadmin2




    NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...

    Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
    by SEQadmin2



    Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

    Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating
