In the Genomic Microbiology Group of Prof. Tal Dagan at the Institute
of Microbiology at Kiel University, Germany, a

Postdoc position (m/w/d)

in the field of computational evolutionary microbiology is available
for an initially limited period of 36 months at the earliest possible
date. The weekly working time corresponds to 100% of full employment

tariff grouping is carried out up to pay scale 13 TV-L. The obligation
to teach amounts to 4 hours.

The Genomic Microbiology Group research interests are focused on
microbial genome evolution with an emphasis on the study of lateral gene
transfer. In our research we use both computational and experimental
approaches (see www.uni-kiel.de/genomik). The position offers the
opportunity to develop an independent research profile within the group
research focus. The successful applicant is expected to be involved
in teaching of bioinformatics and molecular evolution, including the
development of teaching materials (lectures/exercises/short videos).

Your profile:
· Doctoral or PhD degree in Molecular Evolution, Bioinformatics or
related fields.
· Knowledge and experience in programming (e.g., Python) and
biostatistical analysis (e.g., with R or MatLab).
· Any of the following expertise is an advantage: the analysis of
genomic or transcriptomic data, phylogenetic reconstruction,
comparative genomics.
· Good oral and written communication skills in English.
· Ability to teach in German is an advantage (alternatively, an
indication to do so from the 2nd year on).
