• Development and analysis of distributed p2p search agents for bioinformatic data harvesting.
  (collaboration: Michael Christen YaCy, Frankfurt)
  

• Large scale (>5.000 CPUs) distributed computing (using BOINC) for mutated protein structure modeling"
  (collaboration: Dr. Wolfgang Wenzel, Institute of Nanotechnology, KIT Karlsruhe).
  

• Development and analysis of document clustering algorithms (e.g GO clustering of Bioinformatic Harvester data)
  
• "Visualpedia" a Wiki-like 3D biological pathway database for bioinformatic knowledge.
  

• We are open to your own project ideas (in our fields of expertise)
  

... we offer post-docs last author papers if you run your own project
(we are free of the "boss-always-last-author-disease" in our lab)

...we offer you a truly interdisciplinary environment in one of the biggest research facilities in Europe

> 4000 scientists in 26 institutes.
Institute for biological interfaces, Institute for scientific computing
Institute for technical chemistry, Institute for nanotechnology, Institute for microstructures, ...all within 700m

...and our lab is right in the center ...

-> bioinformatic analysis, high content screening, microscopy developments, image processing, large scale data analysis, assay development, collaborations with companies, university hospitals, and independent research groups...

...we have collaborations with several companies
-> e.g we develop in collaboration with Olympus Soft-Imaging-Solutions and other partners microscope control software and screening devices. Company contacts can be of great benefit for your future career.
