Hi all,
Just sharing information from a colleague about a potential bioinformatics postdoc 1 year opportunity. Info below.
Regards,
Nick
Postdoctoral Research Associate – Bioinformatics (Evolutionary/Conservation)
Employer: University of Western Australia
Duration: 1yr
Brief Position Description:
We are looking at the evolutionary genomics of fragmented populations of lizards in relation to phenotype, habitat change and population structure. We have whole genome sequences for ~300 lizards across a spread of discrete populations and we are looking for a bioinformatician with skill strengths in estimating mutation load (SnpEff). The successful candidate will work under the supervision of Dr Natasha LeBas, Prof Leigh Simmons (Centre for Evolutionary Biology) and Professor Dave Edwards (Applied Bioinformatics Group). Remote working may be considered. We are keen to fill and commence soon, please contact for further information. Bioinformaticians working in other disciplines welcome to apply.
Key Responsibilities: Estimate genomic parameters of interest (mutation load, GWAS, GEA) from whole genome sequences and prepare data for analysis, analyse data and contribute to manuscript preparation.
