A postdoctoral position is open in the Masson laboratory, department
of Genetics, University of Wisconsin-Madison, starting August 15,
2011, to investigate the molecular mechanisms that govern gravity
signal transduction in Arabidopsis roots. The selected individual will
use systems-biology approaches to compare the global molecular
responses to gravity- and mechano-stimulation between wild type and
mutant roots. Candidates should have a Ph.D. and a strong record of
publication in peer-reviewed journals. Demonstrated experience in
molecular genetics is required, and preference will be given to
individuals with experience in the analysis of next-generation
sequencing and/or proteomics datasets. Candidates should also have
good communication skills and be willing to collaborate with other
researchers working on this project. Applications should be sent as
single pdf files to phmasson from wisc.edu. They should include a short
statement of research interest, a vitae, and names and contact
information for three professional references. Application review will
begin immediately and continue until the position is filled.
