Description:

The CEBio - Centro de Excelência em Bioinformática from Fio Cruz, Brasil (http://www.cebio.org/) and the BMHid-Biologia Molecular de Hidatidosis, CONICET, Argentina (http://www.conicet.gov.ar) labs are seeking a highly motivated phD student with a deep interest in the computational mining of genomic data and the integration and joint analysis of parasite databases. The CEBio is a genomics and bioinformatics center that is currently involved in a number of genomics projects from bacteria to higher eukaryotes. The BMHid is one of the few laboratories with interdisciplinary research in the neglected disease: cystic hydatidosis, in one of the most important Universities of the area. BMHid is engaged in the study of the molecular basis of Echinococcus development and survival as well as in molecular epidemiology of cystic hydatidosis in South America.

NGS Data Management: Sequencing Systems, Storage, and Analysis

NGS Data Management convenes hardware/software engineers, database architects, storage managers, systems
     integrators and analysts who are managing the data, as well as biological/medical researchers who are generating
     the sequences and the bioinformaticists who are analyzing and interpreting the data. This program is designed to
     provide perspectives from each specialty, with an emphasis on how they can be integrated into a cohesive,
     comprehensive team to manage the sequencing data deluge.
