==Job opportunities==
<HR>


====Post-doctoral Position in Bioinformatics at Yale====
== Other Stuff for the Public ==
Applicants are invited for a post-doctoral position at [http://www.yale.edu/ Yale University]. The position is for two years with possible extensions. Choice of project would to some degree depend on the applicant's interests and abilities, though it is expected that the research will be purely computational and will fall into a number of sub-areas in the emerging field of bioinformatics. For specifics, see lab research areas [http://www.gersteinlab.org/about here]. Also, see an [http://papers.gersteinlab.org/papers/subject/intro-to-lab/ introduction to the lab] and some of our best [http://papers.gersteinlab.org/papers/subject/best2006/ papers].
*Info on [[Bioinformatics Lab Information System (BLIS)]] (utilizing Google Docs API)
*[[Posters]] showing lab research
*Misc. Public [[Documents]] about the lab
*Public posts of links and useful info to the lab are at [http://linkstream.gersteinlab.org LinkStream.gersteinlab.org] (more info. about the [[Linkstream]], [http://linkstream.gersteinlab.org/tag/seminars Just seminars])
*[[Status of Lab Web Resources]]
*Vectorized Yale logo, download [http://archive.gersteinlab.org/docs/2015/05.19/Yale_logo.eps here]


The ideal applicant would have a PhD (preferably in bioinformatics, biophysics, or computer science) and have already had some experience in one of the above-mentioned research areas. However, a non-biological background with strong training in another area of science (e.g., physics or computer science) would also be appropriate. He or she would be very skilled in programming and using the computer to solve problems (e.g. experience with C/C++, perl5, SQL, HTML/java, fortran, O/X-PLOR, blast/fasta, excel/word, Irix/linux, and so on).
== Info for Lab Signature ==
*For all lab signatures this the procedure: ask LI & CC. MG will reply w/ an email say "sign0mg" LI will sign.


Further contact information is available [http://www.gersteinlab.org/people/contact.html here]. Applicants are requested to send a CV that includes a list of publications and details of 3 references. Normal e-mail is OK for all correspondence. However, copies of official documents should follow by regular post. Further details about the position and bioinformatics research at [http://www.yale.edu/ Yale] can be obtained over the web at:

====Summer Job in Bioinformatics at Yale====
* Some Useful University Policies
A summer job is available during the upcoming summer to assist in scientific research at Yale University. Possible projects include either elaborating the web interface to an existing biological database (http://www.molmovdb.org) or doing a variety of calculations in genomics. It is expected that this job would be purely computational in nature and consequently require very good computer skills. Experience with such things as C/C++, perl5, SQL, linux/Irix, HTML, and cgi/Java is highly desirable. The salary is negotiable depending the degree of committment.

====PhD Studentships in Bioinformatics at Yale====
Students interested in bioinformatics should apply via the Computational Biology and Bioinformatics (CBB) track in the Biological & Biomedical Sciences (BBS) program, being sure to indicate interest in this lab to enable proper routing of the application. More information through [http://www.cbb.yale.edu/ CBB Home Page] and [http://bbs.yale.edu/ BBS Program].
 
====Undergraduate Researcher in Bioinformatics at Yale====
A number of undergraduate research positions are available during the academic year. Depending on the nature of the work and the student's interest, these positions can either be paid (at normal undergraduate rates) or in the framework of research courses, such as MB&B 470 or CPSC490
There is a wide range of projects with both a computational and biological perspective. These range from elaborating the web interface to an existing biological database (e.g. http://www.molmovdb.org, http://pseudogene.org), to doing a variety of calculations on genomes, from processing and analyzing next-generation sequencing data, to building a machinery for network calculations.
 
It is expected that these jobs will be purely computational in nature and consequently require very good computer skills. Experience with such things as C/C++, Perl/CGI, SQL, Linux/Irix, HTML and Java is highly desirable. Knowledge of statistical softwares, such as R, Matlab, ROOT, etc., would also be desirable. The salary is negotiable depending the degree of committment.
