The Postdoctoral Scholar will participate in a lab- and field-based research project that evaluates the underlying molecular mechanisms that allow for evolutionary innovation. The postdoc will integrate gene family evolution, genomic changes, and protein function within a phylogenetic framework to address fundamental questions of photoreception in molluscs through designing and conducting gene expression experiments in non-model systems, developing computational pipelines to study gene family evolution, and analyzing and interpreting genomic and gene expression datasets (e.g., genome assemblies, RNA-seq, etc).Minimum Education RequiredPh.D. degree in Evolutionary Biology, Molecular Biology, Genomics, or a related fieldRequired Qualifications
