I am #hiring a PostDoc for the Development and application of cloud-based analysis tools and workflows for #lipidome and #metabolome data for my new group at FZJ's IBG-5 Institute in Bielefeld, Germany, and in conjunction with #ELIXIR Germany and de.NBI
Location: Bielefeld, Germany (IBG-5, Computational Mass Spectrometry and Data Science), part of Forschungszentrum Jülich
Please see the full job posting for more details:
The Institute of Bio- and Geosciences - Computational Metagenomics (IBG-5) focuses on bio- and chemoinformatics research activities with a particular emphasis on the interdisciplinary decoding and analysis of mass spectrometry data in the fields of lipidomics and metabolomics. The focus is on the use of cloud technologies, algorithms and AI to analyze large amounts of data and to support various applications in the life sciences and biomedicine. The IBG-5 is involved in service and infrastructure networks both nationally (as part of the German Network for Bioinformatics Infrastructure - de.NBI) and internationally (as a German node in the European Bioinformatics Network ELIXIR) to make data analysis more efficient and automated for both the scientific community and the end user.

Scientists have created an intricate molecular map of the human body and its complex physiological processes based on the analysis of thousands of molecules in blood, urine and saliva samples from 391 volunteers. The data was integrated to create a powerful, interactive visual web-based tool called Connecting Omics (COmics) that can be used to investigate the complex molecular make-up of humans and discover underlying traits associated with various diseases.
The effects of whole #genome_duplication on the #plant #metabolome.

Whole genome duplication (WGD) is a common mutation in plants with profound evolutionary potential. While it is well-known that an increase in genetic material can lead to larger cell sizes, the impact of gene dosage multiplication on the metabolome remains largely unexplored.

Uncovering the dominant role of root metabolism in shaping #rhizosphere metabolome under drought in tropical rainforest plants: Gina Hildebrand et al. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0048969723043127
"as roots respond to drought, their microbial communities adapt, reinforcing the #DroughtTolerance of the plant. These species-specific interactions systematically change with the root #metabolome under drought conditions."
Plant-soil-microbe interactions play a crucial role in processes that take place in the soil directly around plant roots, or the rhizosphere, and these processes contribute to nutrient cycling and metabolite turnover in the environment. Amid the water scarcity that occurs with climate change, plants are forced to adapt through a range of processes that impact soil organic matter turnover in the rhizosphere.

Bacteria that could help one of Africa's staple crops resist a major pest have been identified by researchers at the University of California, Davis. Their findings, published in Cell Reports, could improve yields of sorghum, a mainstay of food and drink in West and East African countries.
