A postdoc position is available in my research group at Friedrich-Schiller-University Jena, Germany. Open Positions: Postdoc: We are looking for a talented cheminformatician, bioinformatician or someone with comparable skills to work on the development cloud-based methods for computational metabolomics. The successful candidate will work closely with the H2020 e-infrastructure project PhenoMeNal, a European consortium of 14 […]
Rachel Spicer in my group in Cambridge has published an article in Nature Scientific Data on the compliance with minimum information guidelines in public metabolomics repositories. The abstract: The Metabolomics Standards Initiative (MSI) guidelines were first published in 2007. These guidelines provided reporting standards for all stages of metabolomics analysis: experimental design, biological context, chemical […]
Leading metabolomics researchers across Europe have co-authored an opinion piece in F1000 Research about “The Future of Metabolomics in ELIXIR”. ABSTRACT: Metabolomics, the youngest of the major omics technologies, is supported by an active community of researchers and infrastructure developers across Europe. To coordinate and focus efforts around infrastructure building for metabolomics within Europe, a […]
John May gave a great talk about the capabilities of the 2.0 release of the Chemistry Development Kit (CDK) in a CINF session at the ACS meeting in Washington.
Together with our collaborator Mark Viant in Birmingham, Robert Hall in Wageningen and Laura Reed at the University of Alabama, the MetaboLights team has just published an article where we argue that the mandatory inclusion of discovered lists of metabolites in submissions to the MetaboLights database leads to the automatic or better crowd-sourced assembly of […]
PhD student Rachel Spicer, last woman standing in my research group in Cambridge, has just published her review on navigating freely-available software tools for metabolomics analysis. The review presents a comprehensive list of the most widely used freely available software and tools that are used primarily in metabolomics. [tpsingle key=”Spicer:2017jc”]
The Michael-Stifel Center in Jena promotes interdisciplinary research and teaching in the field of data-driven and simulation-based sciences. For us, this is a great opportunity to interact with groups interested in all core areas in data-driven science, model-data-integration, simulation sciences and high-performance computing.
Postdoc position and phd positions are available in our group at Jena University, Germany. The successful candidates will work in an exciting network of local and international collaborations, such as the PhenoMeNal project funded by the European Commission in their Horizon2020 framework program. Open Positions: Postdoc: We are looking for a talented cheminformatician, bioinformatician or […]
We have been co-organising the EMBO Course for Computational Metabolomics in Cambridge for the last four years. The next course has now been announced and is open for applications. The course is usually heavily oversubscribed, but it is worth applying. One week of great fun with excellent teachers and students. Date: Monday 5 - Friday 9 February 2018 Venue: European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI) - Wellcome […]
It is our pleasure to join the German Network for Bioinformatics (de.NBI) as an associate member.
