POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCH ASSOCIATE POSITION IN REGENERATIVE GENOMICS AT ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY, USA
The School of Life Sciences at Arizona State University invites applications for a postdoctoral position working in regenerative genomics and bioinformatics. ASU is a dynamic and progressive university dedicated to interdisciplinary collaborations and integrating excellence in research and teaching. The School of Life Sciences at ASU contains over 100 faculty members who foster a culture of basic research and teaching with an eye toward applicability.
Duties will include generation and analysis of differential gene expression in regeneration (RNA-Seq and proteomic data analysis using tools such as TopHat, Bowtie, Cuffdiff, and DESeq), transcriptome assembly (using tools such as Trinity), whole genome assembly and annotation (using tools such as ABySS, DISCOVAR, and MAKER). Position will entail studies of regeneration using genomic and bioinformatic approaches.
Qualifications: Candidates must have earned a doctoral degree in genomics, bioinformatics, genetics, regenerative medicine, or developmental biology, or in a related field prior to appointment; candidate must not currently hold a permanent faculty position. Those with a demonstrated productive and innovative research experience will be given preference. Background in bioinformatics, mathematical biology, or computer science is desired but not essential.
To apply: Send cover letter summarizing your qualifications and interests, curriculum vitae, and names and email addresses of three professional references to Dr. Kenro Kusumi, School of Life Sciences, Arizona State University, PO Box 874501, Tempe, AZ 85287-4501, Email: [email protected].
