screening, differential display, DNA sequencing and molecular cloning
techniques required.
Position (2): microarray system. Strong background and training in
molecular biology required. Experience with high throughput and microarray
technology desirable.
Position (3): data mining, analysis and integration of gene expression and
metabolite profiles. Strong background/training in statistics,
bioinformatics or computational biology required. Experience with
programming and databases desirable; knowledge about biology/chemistry data
is a plus.
The Plant Biotechnology Research Center offers state-of-the-art molecular
biology, biochemistry, chemistry and tissue culture laboratories, including
greenhouse and new microarray facilities. Positions (1) and (2) will start
March 1, 2001 or as soon as possible thereafter, and Position (3) will
start October 1, 2001. Ph.D. required. Send cover letter (position number
