Two postdoctoral positions are available in Yoav Gilad’s lab at the department of Human Genetics at the University of Chicago. The Gilad lab focuses on studying genetic and regulatory differences between humans and our close evolutionary relatives. We pursue a wide range of projects under this umbrella, including comparative genomic studies, studies of regulatory interactions [...]

The Macdonald lab at the University of Kansas seeks postdoctoral applicants to study the genetic basis of morphological variation in Drosophila genitalia. This NIH-funded project aims to characterize the QTL and QTN responsible for variation in the shape of the posterior lobe, a structure that appears to be under sexual selection. The project will expand [...]

*Key-words*: GIS, spatial analysis, DEMs, landscape genetics, landscape genomics, natural selection, adaptation, signal processing, wavelet transform, structure tensors
*Supervisors*: Dr Stéphane Joost (LASIG, EPFL); Prof Dimitri Van De Ville (Medical Image Processing Lab, EPFL & University [...]

A postdoctoral contract of 18 months starting from January 2011 (negotiable) and funded by the French National Research Agency is available in the “Microbial diversity and evolution” team headed by Purificación López-García at the University of Paris-Sud (http://www.ese.u-psud.fr/spip.php?rubrique7). The University of Paris-Sud is located at the pleasant botanical-garden campus of Orsay, 25 km south of [...]

A postdoctoral position is available to study the genetic architecture of wing shape in Drosophila melanogaster in the lab of Ian Dworkin (https://www.msu.edu/~idworkin/) at Michigan State University. The successful candidate will utilize a combination of genetic and genomic approaches to identify polymorphisms associated with variation for wing shape, and in particular to aid in the [...]

A graduate assistantship (M.Sc.) is available in the laboratory of Dr. Theresa Burg at the University of Lethbridge in molecular ecology starting Jan 2011 or May 2011. I am looking for a highly motivated graduate student to work with me to study large-scale population divergence of resident bird species, specifically Picidae. The project involves both [...]

The CEES is a centre of excellence for integrative biological research and is well funded. It provides a stimulating research environment, situated at the Department of Biology, with many young international and Norwegian scientists working on a variety of theoretical and empirical topics within ecology, evolution, population genetics, genomics, phylogenetics, molecular biology, and statistical methodology. [...]

When: start date is flexible, preferrably Fall-Winter 2010, but Spring 2011 is also possible
Deadline: position is open until filled
We are seeking a qualified postdoctoral candidate to be a part of a diverse research program involving coevolutionary interactions, ecological speciation, tri-trophic interactions, and dispersal ecology. The successful candidate will have excellent molecular lab skills, and an [...]

We are seeking to appoint a Post-Doctoral Fellow to work on a three-year project on “Responding to the Amphibian Disease Crisis: Mapping Spread of a Pathogenic Fungus and its Immunological Effects on Infected Populations” funded by the National Research Foundation of Korea and the Seoul National University Brain Fusion Program.
The Post-Doctoral Fellow will conduct research [...]

The Sanger Institute is a genome research institute primarily funded by the Wellcome Trust. We use large-scale sequencing, informatics and analysis of genetic variation to further our understanding of gene function in health and disease and to generate data and resources of lasting value to biomedical research. The Pathogen Genomics group is focused on the [...]
