Subject: Job Announcement: Lab Manager (Research Associate)
Date: Mon, 01 Apr 2019 15:31:47 -0500
Qualified individuals are invited to apply for a full-time Lab Manager
(Research Associate) position at Dr. Sangeet Lamichhaney’s research group
at Department of Biological Sciences at Kent State University in Ohio, USA.
Dr. Lamichhaney is currently based at Harvard University and will move to
Kent State University soon. The successful candidate will work together
with Dr. Lamichhaney to set up a new lab at Kent State University and will
be actively involved in research projects that utilizes advanced ‘omics
methods to study adaptive evolution in birds.
Our previous and ongoing research has focused on integrating computational
genomics and natural history to understand genetic basis of adaptive traits
in vertebrates, both at micro and macro-evolutionary scales. Specific
research themes are in the topics of convergent evolution of traits and
adaptive radiation, role of structural variants in adaptive
diversification, impact of interspecies gene flow on trait evolution and
hybrid speciation. Our work on the Darwin’s finches for instance,
represents an example of how genomics can be effectively integrated with
the long-term field studies on ecology and natural history to reveal unique
insights into genetic basis of adaptive radiation in Darwin’s finches
that has been one of the textbook example for variety of topics in
evolutionary biology.
