[General] PhD Position in Visualization at University of Konstanz

Dear Colleagues, the Konstanz Research School Chemical Biology (KoRS-CB) and the Computer and Information Science (CS) department at the University of Konstanz in Germany offer a PhD position in the area of information visualization for biology. We are searching for excellent candidates either in bioinformatics or in computer science with knowledge relevant to (biological) data visualization. In the project we will develop new data-analysis and visualization methods for high-throughput screening in Chemical Biology. Hit selection and sub-structure determination through clustering will be optimized with regards to chemical relevance. Results will be visualized by different parallel views that allow coherent interaction. An important aspect in visualization will be to reduce the cognitive load of the viewer. A successful candidate will be offered a full three years TVL 13 position and associated with KoRS-CB and CS. contact & links: Prof. Dr. Oliver Deussen ( <mailto:od@uni.kn> od(a)uni.kn) <http://graphics.uni.kn> http://graphics.uni.kn Konstanz Research School Chemical Biology: <http://www.chembiol.uni-konstanz.de/> http://www.chembiol.uni-konstanz.de/
