[Andrew Baker]

Postdoctoral position in coral reef genomics, University of Miami. We are
seeking a postdoctoral researcher to apply genotype-by-sequencing (GBS)
approaches to study the population structure and connectivity of select
species of corals and reef fish in the Florida Keys, Pulley Ridge, and wider
Caribbean. This two-year position is jointly supervised by Dr. Andrew Baker
and Dr. Margie Oleksiak in the Department of Marine Biology and Ecology at
the University of Miami's Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric
Science (RSMAS), and is  based in a new 85,000 sq.ft. Marine Technology and
Life Sciences Seawater Complex ( <http://www.rsmas.miami.edu/seawater>
www.rsmas.miami.edu/seawater). Prior experience in population genetics is
required, and experience generating and analyzing genomic datasets, and
conducting underwater field work on reef corals and/or fish, is highly
desirable. The position is open effective immediately. Please send CV and
names of references to both Margie Oleksiak (
<mailto:moleksiak at rsmas.miami.edu> moleksiak at rsmas.miami.edu) and Andrew
Baker ( <mailto:abaker at rsmas.miami.edu> abaker at rsmas.miami.edu).

 

The RSMAS campus ( <http://www.rsmas.miami.edu/> www.rsmas.miami.edu) is
located on Virginia Key, a unique community of marine research and
educational institutions 15 minutes from downtown Miami, Florida.
Approximately $250M per year is invested in marine science and education on
Virginia Key, including RSMAS, the NOAA Atlantic Oceanographic and
Meteorological Laboratory, the NOAA Southeast Fisheries Science Center, the
Miami Seaquarium, and the Maritime and Science Technology Academy (MAST).
