Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position in evolutionary
systems biology at the Laval University Institute for Integrative and
Systems Biology (IBIS)(Quebec, Canada) to study the organization of
signalling networks by means of experimental evolution. The successful
candidate will study the genetic architecture and evolution of signalling
networks using the budding yeast and its close relatives as models. The
candidate will have access to state-of-the-art facilities in automated
screening, high-throughput sequencing and computational biology.
Applicants must hold a PhD in biology or in a related discipline. The
candidate should have strong experience in molecular biology and/or
bioinformatics. Prior experience with high throughput screening and
genotyping, statistics and yeast genetics would be an asset.
Université Laval is one of the first higher education institutions in
the Americas and is one of the leading universities in Canada. Located
in Quebec City -- a UNESCO world heritage city-- Université Laval
offers an excellent research and training environment for scholars and
