A 3 year postdoctoral research associate position is available within my MicroLab research group in the Bristol Glaciology Centre, University of Bristol. This is part of a 4-year Leverhulme Trust funded project called iDAPT: Ice Dependent Adaptations for Plant Terrestrialization.
The position is concerned with the sequencing, assembly, annotation and interrogation of ice inhabiting Streptophyte algal genomes as a means to exploring the processes of early land plant evolution and their links with the cryosphere. The role will be supervised by Dr Chris Williamson (Geographical Sciences), Dr Tom Williams (Biological Sciences) and Prof. Philip Donoghue (Earth Sciences), at the University of Bristol.
