🚨 A quick reminder: the PhD and postdoc positions within the ERC project #BindingShadows are still open!

We’ve just moved into a brand-new building, and during the transition our servers and website were occasionally down, meaning we might not have received some applications.

We moved! After several weeks of home office, we finally moved into our brand-new building!
Apologies for the occasional downtime of our servers and website over the past two months. Everything is back up and should run smoothly from now on!

Job offers | Lehrstuhl Bioinformatik Jena We might be looking for a PhD student or postdoc right now, without posting anything. Everybody with a solid background in bioinformatics, algorithmics and/or machine learning is welcome! Interest or ...

Clearly, we will not do that for one bioactivity or one protein, but for all of them in parallel.

Sounds interesting? Looking for a job? Stay tuned, as we will shortly start searching for PhD and postdoc candidates!

The clue is: The model is supposed to do that when the identity and structure of the molecule is not known; not known to us, not known to the person that measured the data, not known to mankind (aka novel compounds).
