The Li lab (https://www.purdue.edu/hla/sites/lilab/) at Purdue University seeks applicants for a PhD position that offers interdisciplinary training in plant functional genomics, epigenetics and systems biology.
The PhD student will lead and participate in research projects aiming to characterize gene regulatory networks - including epigenetic regulatory edges - underlying important biological processes such as nutrient signaling and plant development. The mentoring goal is to train plant scientists with molecular toolkits and computational know-how.
Qualifications: Bachelor's or Master's degree in genetics, genomics, biology, plant sciences or in any related field. Candidates with a strong background in molecular biology and math are highly encouraged to apply.
How to Apply: Applicants are encouraged to email a one-page cover letter and CV (including skills, previous research/education, GPA, GRE/TOEFL, and the contacts of three references) to [email protected]. Please kindly set the email title as "[PhD_application] Full name". Please also refer to the departmental webpage (https://ag.purdue.edu/hla/Hort/Pages...rogram.aspx#AP) for application procedure, requirements and deadlines. The deadline for fall admission is May 1st, 2017.
