POSTDOC IN GENOME AND MOLECULAR EVOLUTION

A postdoc position is available in Becky Zufall’s lab (http://bchs.uh.edu/~rzufall/) at the University
of Houston to study the evolution of genome processing in ciliates.

The goal of the funded research is to understand the diversification of genome architecture and its
implications for patterns of molecular evolution by examining diverse ciliates with extensively
fragmented genomes.  Specific research projects are flexible and the candidate is encouraged to
develop additional lines of inquiry complementary to ongoing research in the lab.

Candidates with a background in evolution and molecular genetics, and an interest in protists, are
encouraged to apply.  The start date is negotiable, but the position is available immediately, for an
initial period of one year.

To apply, send an email containing a letter of interest, a C.V., and two references to
