Could you please forward the announcement to contacts who might be interested in this position. Thank you. Kind regards Birgit Thron Secretary to Prof Maarten Koornneef Director, Plant Breeding and Genetics Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research Carl-von-Linn?-Weg 10 50829 Cologne/Germany Tel: 0049-221-5062-401 Fax: 0049-221-5062-413 E-mail: thron@mpiz-koeln.mpg.de www.mpiz-koeln.mpg.de The Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research (MPIZ) seeks a post-doctoral scientist to establish Affymetrix chip hybridizations for different types of array. In addition the successful applicant will work closely with research groups to prepare hybridization experiments and analyze the data. The position will be based in the DNA core facility which houses a DNA sequencing service, robots for array construction and an Affymetrix chip hybridization station. Extension of the facility to include massively parallel sequencing approaches is planned for the next year. We seek a candidate with a PhD in biology, genetics or a related field. Previous experience with array hybridizations or other genomics-based approaches would be an advantage. Very good English skills are required and German language skills would be advantageous. Payment and benefits are according to the German TV?D. The position will initially be limited to two years with the possibility of a further extension depending on performance. The Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research (MPIZ) in Cologne (www.mpiz-koeln.mpg.de) is one of the world?s premier sites committed to basic research and training in plant science. The institute consists of four scientific departments, three independent research groups and specialist support, totalling about 400 staff, including externally funded positions. The Max Planck Society is an equal opportunity employer.
