Bioinformatics Computing Consultant Position Available
October 31, 2011 by Katie Antypas | 0 Comments
NERSC and the Joint Genome Institute (JGI) are searching for two individuals who can help biologists exploit advanced computing platforms. JGI provides production sequencing and genomics for the Department of Energy. These activities are critical to the DOE missions in areas related to clean energy generation and environmental characterization and cleanup. JGI has recently partnered with NERSC, the DOE Office of Science’s flagship computing center, a world leader in providing high-performance computing tools and expertise that enable computational science of scale. This partnership gives JGI staff access to supercomputer class systems, advanced architectures, and large-scale storage systems enabling JGI to address the most demanding genomic problems. This position will help bridge the gap from biology to computational science. The position will support the JGI mission by directly engaging with biologists to assist them with effectively using the range of computational resources at their disposal.
