A position is available for a Postdoctoral Research Associate to join the Bruford laboratory at Cardiff School of Biosciences, a multidisciplinary team focussing on understanding the determinants of genomic diversity and structure in endangered wild and domestic species.
Funded by grant from the European Commission, the appointee will work in the Nextgen research project http://nextgen.epfl.ch/, undertaking population genomics analysis of livestock and their wild ancestors using a combination of high density SNP and whole genome data for cattle sheep and goats in a variety of environments and production systems. Specifically, the appointee will examine genome-level diversity and selection in wild and domestic sheep from North Africa and the Middle East
The successful candidate will have a PhD in population genetics or genomics, plus experience of handling genome-scale datasets and the major bioinformatics software packages for genomes.
The position is fixed term for a period to 31 March 2014, available immediately. Job specifications can be found at http://www.cf.ac.uk/jobs/
Salary: £29,972 – £35,788 per annum, (Grade 6).

The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...-

Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...-
