  • Excellent leadership and collaboration skills
Your Responsibilities
  • Lead on analysis and publishing of substantial whole-genome resequencing datasets
  • Investigate the origin of genomic differences between ecotypes and how these are maintained by mate choice and selection
  • Collaborate with other researchers to develop and implement new methods for analyzing genomic data
Our Offer
  • A unique opportunity to lead on high-impact research
  • A dynamic and supportive research environment
  • A competitive salary and benefits package
