The mission of our group is to discover genomic determinants of phenotypic differences between species, which is important to understand how nature's fascinating phenotypic diversity evolved and how it is encoded in the genome. Work in the lab ranges from genome assembly and alignment to annotating genes, developing and applying comparative genomic methods to discover key differences in genes (such as loss, gain, selection) and regulatory elements, and using statistical approaches to associate genomic to phenotypic differences [1-8].

The postdoc will join our efforts to extend our methods repertoire to accurately detect additional types of genomic changes, to adopt them to other taxonomic groups, and to apply them on a large-scale to existing and numerous newly-sequenced genomes generated by us and our TBG collaborators.

Candidate requirements
· PhD degree in bioinformatics / computational biology, genomics or a related area

· a strong publication record

· excellent programming skills in a Linux environment as well as experience with shell scripting and Unix tools

· previous experience in large-scale comparative genomic data analysis is an advantage.
