Postdoctoral Position Available in Maize Gametophyte Development
FUNCTIONAL GENOMICS OF MAIZE GAMETOPHYTES
Laboratory of Matt Evans
Carnegie Institution for Science
Department of Plant Biology
Stanford, CA 94305
A postdoctoral position is available starting immediately to study
the functional genomics of maize gametophyte development. The
successful applicant will join an NSF Plant Genome Research
Program-funded collaboration between the Carnegie Institution, Oregon
State University, Iowa State University, South Dakota State
University, and Stanford University. The project uses molecular,
genetic, and bioinformatic tools to identify genes required for
gametophyte development and function in maize. A Ph.D. in molecular
biology, genetics, or a related field is required. A strong
background in genetics and molecular biology is desired. Experience
in maize genetics is advantageous but not required. Excellent
communication skills and an ability and willingness to collaborate
are essential. The successful applicant is also expected to interact
with undergraduates participating in the project through the Stanford
Science in Service Program.
Interested individuals should send an application package through e-mail (a
cover letter detailing experience; CV; publication reprints; and names,
telephone numbers and e-mail addresses of three references) to Matt
Evans, Carnegie Institution for Science, Department of Plant Biology,
260 Panama St., Stanford, CA 94305 USA; phone: 650-325-1521 x.283;
fax: 650-325-6857; email: mmsevans from stanford.edu
The Carnegie Institution is an equal opportunity employer.
