Faculty Position- Assistant Professor EVOLUTIONARY GENOMICS

University of California, Riverside

The Department of Biology invites applications for a 9-month tenure-track faculty position in the area of Evolutionary Genomics, starting July 1, 2016. Candidates should employ a comparative evolutionary approach in the study of genome architecture and its consequences for adaptive evolution. The research should exploit the burgeoning ability to study genomes to tackle key problems in the genetics and evolution of fundamental biological processes, such as pathogenicity, disease resistance, physiological adaption, symbiosis, response to a changing environment, invasiveness, animal or plant domestication, productivity, behavior/signaling, stress/tolerance, speciation/extinction, or the evolution of the genome itself. Ideally, the candidate will be proficient at developing novel bioinformatics approaches to the comparative study of genomes. Researchers that utilize techniques such as advanced statistical methods and computer-programming skills are desired. The successful candidate will join a vibrant community of researchers in the Department of Biology, the Evolution, Ecology and Organismal Biology Graduate Program, the Genetics, Genomics, and Bioinformatics Graduate Program, the Center for Conservation Biology, the Center for Invasive Species Research, the Institute for Integrative Genome Biology, and the Environmental Dynamics and GeoEcology Institute. The successful candidate will also have access to modern campus facilities in genomics/bioinformatics, proteomics, microscopy, stable isotope analysis, and field stations and facilities. Consult for details about the department. Applicants will be expected to pursue vigorously extramurally-funded research and contribute to teaching in our undergraduate and graduate core curricula. A Ph.D. and demonstrated excellence in research are required.
