Bioinformatics Scientist

Science for Life Laboratory (SciLifeLab, www.scilifelab.se) in Sweden serves as a national infrastructure to support advanced high-throughput life science research, and is currently one of the fastest-growing life science research establishments in Europe. The National Bioinformatics Infrastructure Sweden (NBIS, www.nbis.se) constitutes the SciLifeLab bioinformatics platform and is also the Swedish ELIXIR Node.
 
The bioinformatics platform is in rapid development, now looking for a permanent staff member to join the Bioinformatics Long-term Support team (WABI), placed in Uppsala. The Bioinformatics Long-term Support team provides advanced bioinformatics analyses to some of the most scientifically exciting projects across Sweden, and with 24 full-time senior bioinformaticians, the team is one of the strongest units for analysis of large-scale genomics and integrative omics in Sweden.

ELIXIR – IMI OncoTrack scoping study on long-term data handling

The aim of this project was to deposit relevant subsets of data from the IMI OncoTrack project into a data discovery service in the European Genome-phenome Archive (EGA) or as part of other ELIXIR Node resources (e.g. for long-term hosting of TranSMART instances). It also assessed the cost and complexity of ex-post data sharing efforts for IMI translational research projects.

Technical and community development in preparation for scaling­ up of the ELIXIR Tools & Data Services Registry

The aim of this Implementation Study was to prepare for the start of the ELIXIR-EXCELERATE project and the anticipated scaling up of the ELIXIR Tools and Data Services Registry, both in terms of the content, functionality and the community behind it, certain urgent developments are required. These include technical development of the registry, preparations for a series of hackathons and publications following from these efforts.

The study has been completed, see the end report.
