・Bioinformatician with prior skills to analyze output of next-generation sequencers
・Pre-/post-doctoral researcher who is specialized in molecular evolution and phylogenetics
・Pre-/post-doctoral researcher who has prior experience in chromatin biochemistry for ChIP assays

'Good slip' into 2012 !

In this season, every German says 'Guten Rutsch!',
meaning 'Good slip (into the new year) !'. 

Today I organized several things to leave the apartment and the town soon.
I wish you all a happy new year.
