Joining the Ochman Lab

GRADUATE STUDY

If you are interested in graduate study in the Ochman lab on microbial genomics and genome evolution, please contact Howard Ochman.

Those interested in graduate positions in the lab should read about the graduate program in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology and apply to Yale University.

POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCH - GENOME EVOLUTION

A Postdoctoral Research position is available to study the diverse classes of sequences that reside within bacterial genomes and the process of gene degradation on the evolution and organization of bacterial genomes.

Potential projects include both bioinformatic and experimental studies. Applicants could have skills in molecular genetic or microbiological procedures, in bioinformatics or phylogenetic analysis, and/or in evolutionary or population genetics. Candidates trained in the fields of Evolutionary Biology, Microbiology, Computational Biology, Molecular Biology or Genetics are all encouraged to apply. The position is available immediately; however, the starting date is flexible. Salary (in the range of $38K to $45K, plus benefits) will be commensurate with experience.

If you wish to apply, please send a curriculum vita and the names of at least two referees (via e-mail) to Howard Ochman.
