POSTDOCTORAL POSITION
RECONSTRUCTING THE EUKARYOTIC TREE OF LIFE
SMITH COLLEGE
A Postdoctoral Research position is available to participate in an NSF-
ATOL collaborative project entitled: "Assembling the Tree of
Eukaryotic Diversity through Analyses of Microbial Eukaryotes."
Potential projects include both bioinformatics and experimental studies
on multigene data from eukaryotic microbes. Applicants should have
skills in molecular systematics, bioinformatics (ideally including python),
microbiology and/or molecular evolution. A postdoc on this project will
also have opportunities to work closely with collaborators at the Marine
Biological Laboratories, the American Type Culture Collection and the
University of Iowa (see http://www.eutree.org). The position is available as
of this fall, though there is some flexibility in start date, and will last
at least two years.
