The Convergenomix project is looking to hire an engineer or post-doc with
experience in C++ and OCaml for a 2 year contract at the University of Lyon
1. The proposed work deals with the implementation of computational methods
in evolutionary biology, and it involves high performance computing,
probabilistic inference and models for genome evolution. Previous
experience in computational biology is not required (but would of course be
a plus), and while the proposed work mainly involves software development,
it is also a great opportunity to learn about biology and evolution.
The successful applicant will work within the ANR Convergenomix project,
which groups 4 labs all based in Lyon. Convergenomix aims to study
convergent evolution at the genome scale by developing and applying
bioinformatic methods in 3 different groups of animals. The laboratories
involved in the Convergenomix projects have generous resources for genomic
analysis (scientific high-performance computing, data management, training
and support). They offer a stimulating environment, with a rich spectrum of
research activities in life sciences, statistics and computational biology.
The position will be located at the LBBE.

For more information, contact us at convergenomix@univ-lyon1.fr or see the
project (http://lbbe.univ-lyon1.fr/convergenomix/) and lab (
https://lbbe.univ-lyon1.fr/?lang=en) websites.

Lyon is the second largest French city, is very well connected to other
European cities, is famous for its food, and offers a broad range of
cultural and recreational activities.

Application packages should include a letter of motivation, a curriculum
vitae, and the names and email addresses of two referees. Documents should
be submitted as a single PDF file to convergenomix@univ-lyon1.fr.
