Hi all, <br>
<br>
Here is an engineer job offer (16 months) at Irisa, Rennes, France.
We look forward to receiving your application!<br>
<div class="entry-content clearfix">
<h2 style="text-align: left;">Context:</h2>
<p>• INRA contract in the <a
href="http://www.itn-ignite.eu/show/about_11570/">ITN Ignite</a>
network. Located at Inria, GenScale team</p>
<h2>Supervision:</h2>
<p>• Supervisor: Denis Tagu (INRA Rennes),<br>
• Co-supervisor Fabrice Legeai (INRA Rennes) / Pierre Peterlongo
(IRISA, Rennes)</p>
<h2>Context & Objectives:</h2>
<p>Assembly of complex, very large, and highly heterozygous
genomes remains nowadays a complex task for which no tool
performs well. This is particularly true for insect genomes,
despite countless initiatives such as i5K. The ITN Ignite aims
among other things to propose new methods for assembling such
non-model invertebrates.<br>
New sequencing strategies using both short (Illumina), long
reads (Oxford Nanopore/PacBio), linked reads (Chromium 10X), as
well as approaches based on chromosome conformation capture (3C)
are be used to alleviate these problems. This project will aim
to develop new algorithms and tools for increasing the quality
and the assembly of large and complex heterozygous genomes,
while integrating data from diverse technologies (NGS, long
reads, 3C/HiC, 10X), create new references structure (e.g.
haplotypes in genome graphs) and further applications.</p>
<p>The applicant will be located at the INRIA/IRISA laboratory in
the GenScale bioinformatics research team that focuses on
methodological research at the interface between computer
science and genomics. The main objective of this group is the
design of scalable, optimized and parallel algorithms for
processing genomic data generated by the recent advances of
biotechnologies. This work will be based on the usage and
development of GATB, a C++ library and software suite developed
by the team. And, this project will benefit from the INRA IGEPP
laboratory and their collaborators for evaluating these new
strategies on various species with the aim to infer different
traits (host recognition, reproduction) involved in the
adaptation of target insect species to their environment.</p>
<p> </p>
<h2>Skills</h2>
<p>The candidate should have strong algorithmic and C++
development expertise. An important biological background and
motivation is highly recommended.</p>
<h2>Working conditions</h2>
<p>The recruited engineer will belong to the ETN Ignite project.
Hence she/he will benefit from an annual workshop, from the
whole ETN network and within planned secondments she/he will
work partly abroad in the lab of “Jean-François Flot”
(Bruxelles).</p>
<h2>Recruitment conditions</h2>
<p>• The candidate should not have a PhD degree<br>
• The candidate should be in the first four years (full-time
equivalent research experience) of its research careers<br>
• The candidate can be of any nationality. However, candidate’s
residence or main activity during the 3 years prior to its
recruitment should not be France.</p>
<h2>Practical aspects:</h2>
<p>• Location: Irisa, Rennes, France.<br>
• Start: 01/05/2019 – End: 31/07/2021</p>
