The Anderson lab is seeking a Postdoctoral Researcher to join our team. Applicants to this position will be working as part of a collaborative project to determine how evolution acts on function of individual paralogs in a human fungal pathogen Candida albicans gene family. This work will require an understanding of general genetic and evolutionary concepts but applicants with diverse perspectives covering a range of biological approaches including genetics and genomics, evolutionary biology, molecular biology, cell biology, microbiology, and bioinformatics that hold a Ph.D. in a biological/biomedical field are encouraged to apply. Basic molecular biology skills will be required and applicants will ideally be situated to enter with some experience in bioinformatics or large dataset analysis. Willingness to learn these approaches including mastery of scripting languages (Python or R) will be required. This position is seeking an individual for a minimum of a three year time commitment and may continue for longer periods.
