Source: DGC
News Details:
Three leadership positions are open at the Center for Genomics and
Bioinformatics, because of expanding research activities. These positions
offer the opportunity to work in a fast-moving collegial environment and
to collaborate with geneticists, molecular biologists, developmental
biologists, evolutionary biologists, bioinformaticists, and
mathematicians. Appointments - with competitive salary and benefits - will
be at the rank of Research Associate or Assistant Scientist (a research
faculty rank) based on a candidate's preparation and prior experience. In
addition, there are frequent openings for post-doctoral researchers and
technical staff. Inquiries about all openings should be directed to
jobs@cgb.indiana.edu.
The Functional Genomics Unit Leader
will help guide research projects that use large-scale cDNA libraries and
microarrays to characterize genomes, supervise current technical staff and
also direct further hiring efforts as needed. The successful candidate
will have considerable experience in the use of cDNA libraries and in
molecular biology techniques.
The Microarray Production Unit Leader will manage all aspects of
microarray development, fabrication, quality control, and distribution of
high quality reagents for genomic research. The Unit Leader will supervise
current technical staff and direct further hiring efforts as needed. The
successful candidate will have prior experience in the use of microarrays
and robotics.
The Emerging Genomic Technologies Scientist will lead efforts to
devise, adopt, and/or test new technologies, e.g. on-slide oligonucleotide
synthesis and novel imaging techniques. The successful candidate will have
a strong background in biochemistry and/or chemistry with some experience
in phosphoramidite synthesis.
The positions are open now and applications will be accepted until they
are filled. Those received by June 6, 2006, will be assured full
consideration. Interested candidates may contact (jobs@cgb.indiana.edu)
for further information.
