[Compbio-allhands] Fwd: Recuitment_computational biology by iHuman Institute ShanghaiTech University
by Jacobson, Matt 16 Mar '17

16 Mar '17

- Matt Dear Professors: This is a letter from iHuman Institute of ShanghaiTech University, Shanghai, China. Now we are seeking candidates for our Faculty and Postdoc Positions, who focus on computational biology, especially Whole Cell Modeling. It's an honor for us if you can recommend highly motivated and outstanding international candidates. You can get more details from the attached file. About iHuman: iHuman Institute is a new international effort established as a research institute located on the campus of ShanghaiTech University. The institute is a gateway to the world of Shanghai life science research. What makes iHuman Institute special is that it is focused exclusively on the basic and applied science of human cell signaling, integrating multiple tools for scientific discovery, and bringing together leading researchers throughout the world. Cell surface receptors and their related intracellular proteins are responsible for human cellular communications with each other and their environment, and are involved in a wide range of physiological activities. Such a central role in human biology makes cell signaling the target for intervention for tuning physiological responses and fighting numerous conditions and diseases. These proteins are central to understanding the evolution of mankind and human cognition at a molecular level. Please let us know if you have any questions, also you can contact us by replying the E-mail directly. Thank you for your time. iHuman HR Team http://ihuman.shanghaitech.edu.cn/ [cid:07755f86-88bf-4a6f-a3ca-c06c93f99b63] [cid:07AE44DF-E495-4781-B290-5DD2A125D5A3]

[Compbio-allhands] informal seminar announcement
by Tom Ferrin 16 Mar '17

16 Mar '17

Please let students and other researchers in your lab know about the following informal seminar. Tristan has created a nice plug-in tool for our ChimeraX software that he'll talk about. * Tristan Croll * * PhD Student *Cambridge University * * *Friday, March 24* *2 - 3pm* *Genentech Hall S-203* *Title:* ISOLDE: a next-generation model-building environment for challenging molecular structures *Abstract:* Given an experimental dataset of sufficiently high resolution, modern model-building and refinement software can often build high-quality, near-complete models almost entirely automatically. However, as resolution degrades to the point where individual atoms are no longer resolved, the task becomes substantially more challenging and dependent upon user intervention. Current standards at these resolutions remain quite poor, with structures regularly deposited to the Protein Data Bank with outlier rates 1-2 orders of magnitude higher than expected of high resolution structures. ISOLDE is a set of tools which applies interactive molecular dynamics to significantly improve the ease and fidelity of model-building into such data, in essence by making the task feel similar to interacting with a real, physical molecule. In this seminar I will give a preview of the ISOLDE package and workflow, with examples from both EM and crystallographic structures.
