[BBC] PostDoc position (evolutionary genomics) in Roscoff, France

[Lieven Sterck]

Note that three postdocs and one PhD studentship in evolutionary genetics/genomics/epigenetics will be advertise this Spring for a start from September 2020 (in the context of a recently awarded ERC Consolidator grant). 

> BIOINFORMATICS POSTDOC IN EVOLUTIONARY GENOMICS

> Roscoff Marine Station, France

> A postdoctoral position (1 year with possible renewal for 3 years) is available
> immediately in the Algal Genetics group at the Roscoff Marine Station,
> Brittany, France ( [ http://www.sb-roscoff.fr/en/team-algal-genetics |
> http://www.sb-roscoff.fr/en/team-algal-genetics ] ).

> We are seeking highly qualified and enthusiastic applicants with strong skills
> in computational biology/bioinformatics, ideally also with experience in data
> mining and comparative or evolutionary genome analyses.

> We have been interested in a range of topics related to the evolution of sexual
> reproduction across the brown algal group. In the framework of our research,
> and together with collaborators at Genoscope (Paris) we have generated full
> genomes of 48 lines of brown algae and comprehensive sets of RNA-seq data for a
> range of life cycle stages from representatives of all major brown algal
> lineages and evolutionary outgroups. We perform integrated analyses to study
> the evolution of brown algal genomes across lineages, life cycle stages,
> chromosomes and sexes.

> The postdoctoral fellow will be funded by an awarded ERC Starting Grant (SEXSEA)
> and perform integrated evolutionary/bioinformatics analyses based on data
> produced in our lab and available genomic data. The project will focus on
> analyses of the ‘omics’ datasets generated in the framework of the ERC Grant
> and Phaeoexplorer (France Genomique), including high quality genomes, HiC
> datasets, genetic maps, transcriptomes, etc. More precisely the postdoc will
> use bioinformatics and comparative evolutionary genomic approaches to identify
> sex chromosomes and investigate their evolution.

> The language of the institute is English and its members form a highly
> international group. The Roscoff Marine Station is located in Britany at the
> sea Front, and Roscoff is a picturesque city close to Brest, 3h away from
> Paris.

> Please submit a CV, statement of research interest, and names of three
> references to: Susana Coelho ( [ mailto:Coelho at sb-roscoff.fr |
> Coelho at sb-roscoff.fr ] ).

> We are always interested in applications from highly qualified and motivated
> bioinformatics postdocs, experimental (genomics/molecular/ developmental
> biology) postdocs and bioinformatics PhD students. Please send applications and
> other requests to Susana Coelho ( [ mailto:Coelho at sb-roscoff.fr%29 |
> Coelho at sb-roscoff.fr) ] .

> Note that three postdocs and one PhD studentship in evolutionary
> genetics/genomics/epigenetics will be advertise this Spring for a start from
