A postdoctoral associate position in Quantitative Genetics and Genomics is immediately available in the Gore lab (http://plbrgen.cals.cornell.edu/people/michael-gore) in the Department of Plant Breeding and Genetics at Cornell University. This position is supported by a Cotton Incorporated Fellowship. The successful candidate will collaborate closely with a diverse team of scientists on an NSF funded project titled "A field-based high-throughput phenotyping platform for plant genetics." Specifically, the candidate will develop and apply statistical and computational approaches to identify quantitative trait loci controlling agronomic, fiber quality, and physiological traits in cotton. In addition, there will be opportunities for collaborative research on the development of novel high-throughput phenotyping approaches for cotton with USDA-ARS scientists located at the U.S. Arid-Land Agricultural Research Center in Maricopa, Arizona, and Kansas State University in Manhattan, Kansas (http://fieldphenomics.org/).

How to Apply A letter of interest in the position, C.V., and contact information for three references should be emailed to Michael Gore at: mag87@cornell.edu
