BIOINFORMATICS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN 

The Departments of Biology and Mathematics at the University of  
Michigan solicit applications for a tenure-track faculty position in  
bioinformatics.  We seek individuals who have established or show  
exceptional promise toward establishing a research program that  
applies methods of mathematical and/or computational science to  
fundamental questions in molecular biology.  The successful  
candidate must have a Ph.D. in Mathematics, Biology, Cell  
Biology, Molecular Biology, or a related field, as well as  
postdoctoral experience.  The successful candidate will be involved 
 in a major expansion of bioinformatics at the University of  
Michigan.  As part of a $200 million Life Sciences Initiative, the  
University of Michigan is expanding faculty, buildings, and  
infrastructure in the life sciences.  As part of the Life Sciences  
Research Corridor Initiative, the State of Michigan is also investing  
substantial resources in a new program that will benefit the  
Universities, Industries and Research Foundations with Michigan.   
Bioinformatics will be a major component in both of these 
initiatives. 

In addition to establishing a successful research program, the  
candidate will be expected to participate in undergraduate and  
graduate teaching and curriculum development of the departments.  
 To apply, send a curriculum vitae, copies of selected reprints, a  
brief summary of present and future research plans, and arrange to  
have three letters of reference sent by October 16, 2000, directly to
