Funding is available for a post-doctoral fellowship in the area of
evolutionary bioinformatics. The successful candidate will contribute
to several lines of research, involving next-generation sequence data
analysis, meta-genomics, population genetics, phylogenetics and
phylo-geography. Across these lines of research, the Fellow will apply
recently proposed probabilistic models for phylogenetic inference, and
for the characterization of long-term features of molecular evolution.
The Fellow will work under the supervision of Dr. Nicolas Rodrigue, at
the Eastern Cereal and Oilseeds Research Centre, located on the Central
Experimental Farm in Ottawa, ON, Canada. Candidates must be eligible
for the NSERC Visiting Fellowship program
(http://www.nserc-crsng.gc.ca/
ratoires/index_eng.asp), and the selected Fellow will initially be
offered a 1 year contract, with the possibility of a two-year renewal.
Interested candidates should send a cover letter, their CV, and the
contact information for three references by email to
nicolas.rodrigue@agr.gc.ca.
