AIMS:

AlCoB aims at promoting and displaying excellent research using string and
graph algorithms and combinatorial optimization to deal with problems in
biological sequence analysis, genome rearrangement, evolutionary trees, and
structure prediction.

The conference will address several of the current challenges in
computational biology by investigating algorithms aimed at: 1) assembling
sequence reads into a complete genome, 2) identifying gene structures in the
genome, 3) recognizing regulatory motifs, 4) aligning nucleotides and
comparing genomes, 5) reconstructing regulatory networks of genes, and 6)
inferring the evolutionary phylogeny of species.

Particular focus will be put on methodology and significant room will be
reserved to young scholars at the beginning of their career.

VENUE:

AlCoB 2015 will take place in Mexico City, the oldest capital city in the
Americas and the largest Spanish-speaking city in the world. The venue will
be the main campus of the National Autonomous University of Mexico.

SCOPE:

Topics of either theoretical or applied interest include, but are not
limited to:

Exact sequence analysis
Approximate sequence analysis
Pairwise sequence alignment
Multiple sequence alignment
Sequence assembly
Genome rearrangement
Regulatory motif finding
Phylogeny reconstruction
Phylogeny comparison
Structure prediction
Compressive genomics
Proteomics: molecular pathways, interaction networks ...
Transcriptomics: splicing variants, isoform inference and quantification,
differential analysis ?
Next-generation sequencing: population genomics, metagenomics,
metatranscriptomics ...

Postdoctoral Position in Optimisation for Radiotherapy

The Radiation Physics Laboratory at the University of Sydney currently has several positions open in Medical Physics related research. It is expected that at least one position will involve developing novel mathematics and numerical methods to solve large mixed integer programming problems that arise in radiotherapy treatments of lung cancer patients. This is an exciting opportunity to work on problems that are beneficial to human health, with the research highly likely to be translated to the clinic.

The optimisation position will be funded by a Cancer Australia Grant held by Dr Ricky O?Brien (University of Sydney) and Professor Gary Froyland (UNSW Australia). The positions are full-time fixed term for three years, subject to the completion of a satisfactory probation period for new appointees, with the possibility of a further offer of employment. The optimisation position requires no formal background in medical physics, however, an appreciation on the role that mixed integer programming plays in radiotherapy would be an advantage.

You will have a PhD in Mathematics, Computer Science, or Engineering specialising in optimisation / mathematical programming; excellent oral and written communication skills; demonstrated ability to work effectively as part of a team; demonstrated computer programming ability; demonstrated high level analytical and problem solving skills; a proven record of publications; a proven capacity for self-directed research; and the ability to deliver high-quality project outcomes in a timely manner.

To apply, please follow the link below; the closing date for applications is 23 March, 2015.

Postdoctoral fellowship in Sydney:

We are advertising a 24-month postdoctoral research fellowship in
theoretical computer science shared between University of Sydney and
University of New South Wales, Australia. The expected start date is
September 2015.

The successful applicant will conduct research on algorithms with
Serge Gaspers, Joachim Gudmundsson and Julian Mestre in the USYD SACT
research group and UNSW Algorithms group. The aim will be to design
algorithms in the areas of approximation algorithms and parameterized
complexity.

We are looking for outstanding PhD graduates with a track record in
the broad field of algorithms, ideally with an emphasis on
combinatorial optimization, parameterized complexity or computational
geometry. Experience in experimental algorithmics is an advantage but
not essential.

Salary Package: AUD 85,161 ? AUD 91,520 pa plus superannuation

Your application must include

- a research statement
- a detailed curriculum vitae
- contact details of three references
