PLEASE POST
I am seeking a postdoc to work on annelid evolution and development using
genomic approaches. The individual will work on the WormNet project
(NSF:Biocomplexity initiative) which seeks to reconstruct annelid
phylogeny and explore the origins of segmentation in annelids. This project
represents a multi-PI effort includes the following individuals:
K. M. Halanych, T Dahlgren (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution)
M. Martindale, E. Seaver (University of Hawaii)
D. McHugh (Colgate University)
J. Boore, D. Rokhsar (Joint Genome Institute)
Ideally, an individual with a background in genomic techniques and
evolution of developmental mechanisms is desired. Research will include
development of annelids as model organisms and will focus on the evolution
of genes related to segmentation. While knowledge of phylogenetic
techniques is desirable, it can be learned once in the lab. This research will
also include some fieldwork.
Interest individuals should contact Ken Halanych (khalanych at whoi.edu)
(preferably by Nov 28). They should also apply to the WHOI postdoctoral
program (http://www.whoi.edu/education/postdoctoral/scholarship.html) by
January 15, 2002.
