We are looking for a bioinformatician to join the group at CEH
Wallingford to work on the EOS Cloud project
(http://environmentalomics.org/eoscloud/)
which has just been launched in a pilot phase.

The role requires technical aptitude and a grounding in contemporary
bioinformatics but other than that we’re open-minded about who might
fill the role, and what we really want is someone who is bright,
organised, and ready to learn.  Initially this is a 12-month fixed-term
contract. Unfortunately we are not able to consider applicants who need
a work permit for the UK, so you must already be eligible to do so.

Here is the link with full details – note the closing date for
applications is the 19th August:

Hi all,

Tomorrow is my last day in Sheffield. It has been great fun meeting you all. To celebrate/commemorate my departure we should all drink responsibly at the Uni Arms pub at 5pm Friday. I don’t have everyone’s email so please forward this on to fun people!

See you tomorrow!

last chance to get a photo taken for the dept board

Common Room – TODAY 11:00-12:00

Hi all! Juan and my picnic sadly looks like it will be rained out – so we will try the pub and then can make plans for dinner from there (either eating there or going elsewhere).

We will head to Doctors Orders (the old West End) after work (5-5.30ish).

See you all soon!

The department will be having a digital photo board installed in the near future. Please pop along and have your photo taken by the Faculty photographer, Ron Adams, in the Common Room at the following times:

today 2-3pm
Tuesday 28th July 11:00-12:00
or last chance =
Thursday 30th July 11:00-12:00

We will leave a list of names in the Common Room and it will be most helpful if you could tick your name off when you have had your photograph taken or add it if missing, and if you are a Facility visitor please put “NBAF visitor” after your name.

Thanks

Hi all! Juan and I will both be in Sheffield early next week and we thought it would be awesome to catch up with everyone for a picnic after work on Tuesday 28th (thanks Jess for the outdoor idea!).

We really hope you can all make it (also, if someone could please pre-order some sunshine that would be much appreciated)!

Hi all,

I’ve got spare (unused) broad beans from my aphid sampling. I don’t need them any longer and thus wonder if anybody would like to take them/some for their gardening rather that I throw them away.

They are of course aphid free (well for the moment, as long as they are not in a real garden) and are of the ‘Sutton’ dwarf variety.

Please let me know by Thursday if you want some as I’ll throw them away on Friday (l.duvaux@sheffield.ac.uk).

Cheers,
Ludo
