Research Position in Tomato Functional Genomics
At University of Hyderabad, we are having a vibrant group on Tomato Functional Genomics, which is working on TILLING (Targeting Induced Local Lesions IN Genomes), Insertional Mutagenesis and fruit ripening in tomato. Some of the currents aims of the group include using reverse genetics to isolate tomato mutants delayed in ripening, having high lycopene content in tomato fruits and analysis of light and hormonal signal transduction pathways. For recent publications of the group see (Molecular Plant 3: 854-869; Plant Methods 6: 3; Plant Methods 5:18; Plant Signaling and Behavior 5:11.).
We have one position open at post-doctoral research associate level. The research associate would be offered fellowships of Rs 22,000/- pm + HRA. Applicants should have experience in plant transformation and DNA cloning preferably in tomato or tobacco and should be supported by publications. PhD in molecular biology, or genetics is required. Candidates interested in above position should send their CV, a statement clearly explaining how their skills are relevant to the position and the name/contact information for three references.
The candidates can send their application by post or by email at rameshwar.sharma@gmail.com before December 20th, 2010.
