POSTDOC POSITIONS at the UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER
Population Genomics in the Garrigan Lab
A Postdoctoral position is available immediately in the laboratory of Daniel Garrigan. Research themes of the lab include (1) evolutionary analysis of whole-genome polymorphism data, (2) modeling of population structure, divergence and speciation and (3) coalescent theory. Qualified candidates will have a strong background in population genetics and computational biology. There will be an excellent opportunity to develop strong computer programming and statistical skills with direct applications to the analysis of genome-wide datasets from both humans and Drosophila. Start date is flexible.

Evolutionary genetics in the Presgraves Lab
A Postdoctoral position is available with a July 2009 start date in the laboratory of Daven Presgraves. Research in the lab combines functional, molecular, and population genetic approaches in Drosophila to address questions focused on (1) the genetics of speciation, (2) the interaction between recombination and natural selection, and (3) the evolution and genetics of segregation distortion. Funds are available to support this position for up to three years.
