The NEOF team in Sheffield currently consists of ten staff and is based in a dynamic and productive laboratory that is home to multiple academic research groups studying many aspects of evolutionary genomics, molecular ecology, and animal behaviour. The Genomcis Laboratory currently supports the work of about 70 researchers, including postdocs, technicians, graduate students and visitors.
Applicants should have a PhD (or be close to completion / have equivalent postdoctoral level work experience) in molecular ecology or evolutionary genetics, including genetic analyses (for example, diet analysis, studies of biodiversity, eDNA, population structure, mating systems, linkage mapping, genome assembly, comparative genomics or phylogenetics) and possess excellent analytical skills. Programming skills (e.g., Linux, R, PYTHON or PERL) and experience of high-performance computing clusters are also essential.
We build teams of people from different heritages and lifestyles from across the world, whose talent and contributions complement each other to greatest effect. We believe diversity in all its forms delivers greater impact through research, teaching and student experience.
