09 Postdoctoral Fellowship at Iowa State University, USA

Computational and genomic analyses of evolutionary processes in Gossypium. Major goals are to (1) elucidate the population genomics and genetics of polyploid cotton accompanying domestication, crop improvement, and interspecific gene flow; (2) understand the phenomenon of duplicate gene regulation and expression at the whole plant and single-cell level in a phylogenetic context; (3) refine our knowledge of interspecific introgression and phylogenetic relationships within the genus; and (4) participate in our teacher-training program and other outreach efforts. The successful candidate will have excellent communication and presentation skills and will work closely with Iowa educators.
