Dear all,

We have a vacancy in SCRI's Plant Pathology Programme, where we use
Python/BioPython fairly extensively (including for the GenomeDiagram
visualisation tool mentioned in the advert).  The closing data for
applicants is 8th December, and the details are available at the site
below:

http://www.scri.ac.uk/careers/vacancies/bioinformaticsresearcher

Please share the link with anyone you think may be interested in
applying for the post.

"""
Plant pathology at SCRI has an international reputation for excellence
and innovation. This post offers the opportunity to join our
bioinformatics team, which contributed to  many notable firsts in plant
pathology, including: annotation of the Pectobacterium atrosepticum and
Phytophthora infestans genome sequences, large-scale whole-genome
comparative genomics of bacteria and oomycetes, and development of the
comparative genomics visualisation tool, GenomeDiagram.

You will be responsible for specific areas of bioinformatics research
contributing to the Globodera pallida genome sequencing project,
metagenomic investigations of viral populations in soils and the
analysis of plant-pathogen interactions in several different systems.
You will also be expected to develop your own line of bioinformatics
research, and eventually to obtain independent funding.
"""

Best wishes,
