Looking for Teaching Post doc candidates

by John-David Swanson

Hi all, Please forward to ANY interested parties! My name is JD Swanson, I once again have a post doctoral position available in my lab. The one I had last year was so successful she was snapped up into a tenure track role starting in the fall. Currently this new one is set for a one academic year (2015-2016). It is a teaching postdoc where the incumbent will teach 1-2 classes per semester (as teacher of record), and will work with my undergraduate students on my RI INBRE (NIH) based project working on the molecular mechanisms underling the effects of Raspberry Phenolics on human stomach cancer cells. The Postdoc will need to be willing to train undergraduate students in qPCR, and work with NGS data. Some human cell culture will be required, but extensive training will be provided through my collaborators lab at Brown University. Some work on grant, and manuscript preparation will also be included. This is a position that is ideal for a post-doc wanting to perdure a career as a faculty member at a primarily undergraduate university. Not to mention Newport RI is a WONDERFUL place to live. I do need to fill this position quickly, so please send CV’s to me directly as soon as possible (jd.swanson(a)salve.edu<mailto:jd.swanson@salve.edu>). I will be reviewing immediately until the position is filled. Thanks JD JD Swanson, Ph.D. Associate Professor of Biology Department of Biology ad Biomedical Sciences Salve Regina University 100 Ochre Point Ave Newport RI 02842 401-341-3165 jd.swanson(a)salve.edu http://Swanson.salvereginablogs.com<http://swanson.salvereginablogs.com/> To Book and Appointment, please go to: http://swansonjd.youcanbookme.com<http://swansonjd.youcanbookme.com/>

Request for gene data

by Sook Jung

Dear Rosaceae researchers, Gene Naming Guideline has been put together by Rosaceae Gene Name Standardization Subcommittee of RosEXEC/RosIGI and is available in GDR. This information is found on the main menu at 'Help' ->'Gene Naming Guideline'. http://www.rosaceae.org/nomenclature/gene We recommend authors to refer to the list of gene class symbols in Rosaceae and gene naming guidelines and submit the gene/gene class data. As in the guideline, the data can be submitted in the template available from the page below. http://www.rosaceae.org/data/submission *If you are working on Rosaceae genes, we would like to ask you to submit your gene data using the guideline and give us any feedback. If you know of any researchers who are actively working on genes, please forward this email.* The gene data includes gene name, gene symbol, species, gene model ID, evidence code, etc. After getting enough feedback from the community researchers, we will work with editors of journals to check whether the authors are following the nomenclature guidelines and make sure that novel gene names have been submitted to NCBI and/or GDR before accepting a paper as publishable. Unlike, NCBI, GDR will accept genes that do not come from single molecule sequencing with appropriate evidence code. Sincerely, GDR team ------------------------------------------ Sook Jung, PhD Assistant Research Professor of Bioinformatics Dept of Horticulture Washington State University 45 Johnson Hall, Pullman, WA 99164-6414 Email: sook_jung(a)wsu.edu ------------------------------------------- Follow GDR on Twitter! <https://twitter.com/GDR_news>

New Postdoc Positions with RosBREED Project

by Ksenija Gasic

Postdoc Opportunities in U.S. with RosBREED Project Application window is closing at Christmas! We are seeking postdoctoral associates for key positions in the newly funded RosBREED project (www.rosbreed.org). RosBREED is a U.S-wide collaboration among breeders, geneticists, physiologists, pathologists, and socio-economists of Rosaceae crops. This project seeks to develop and apply modern DNA-based diagnostic tools to help deliver new cultivars with superior horticultural quality and disease resistance. We are seeking two postdocs to begin 1 January 2015. The Prunus Postdoc will be based at Clemson University under the guidance of Dr. Ksenija Gasic and will focus on Prunus crops, primarily peach but not cherry. The Apple & Cherry Postdoc will be based at Washington State University under the guidance of Dr. Cameron Peace and will focus on apple, sweet cherry, and tart cherry. A third postdoc focusing on strawberry, blackberry, rose, and pear will later be sought to begin from 1 September 2015, to be based at USDA-Corvallis. All positions are funded through to 31 August 2019 - i.e., at least four years. Activities: All postdocs will conduct genetic research in QTL discovery, DNA test development both locus-specific and genome-wide, and applied marker-assisted breeding (MAB). These research associates will be the primary liaisons helping U.S. Rosaceae crop breeders to convert new DNA information and other project advances into breeding impact, using cutting-edge technologies, software, and knowledge. Two six-month internships with project partners outside the U.S. (e.g., in Europe, New Zealand, & Australia) are expected for each postdoc during the project's duration. Qualifications: Active research communication is expected in the form of scientific publications, extension articles, participation in conferences and project meetings, and networking across breeding programs and allied science programs both U.S-wide and internationally. Applicants must have a Ph.D. in Plant Breeding, Horticultural Genetics, or a closely related field. The successful candidate will be a highly motivated team player with excellent communication skills and extensive experience in statistical genetics and linkage analysis. Preference will be given to candidates with evidence of successful management of large datasets, substantial research productivity, a strong publication record, experience with perennial, clonally propagated crop genetics, and a commitment to practical application. Familiarity with Rosaceae crop breeding germplasm and Pedigree-Based Analysis software are also advantageous. Applying: If you are interested in the Prunus Postdoc or the Apple & Cherry Postdoc position, please email a cover letter highlighting your qualifications, your current CV, copies of graduate degree transcripts, and contact information (phone number and email address) of three referees to either: Prunus: Dr. Ksenija Gasic at kgasic(a)clemson.edu or Apple & Cherry: Dr. Cameron Peace at cpeace(a)wsu.edu Please direct questions on either position to the same email addresses. Consideration of applications will begin immediately and will continue until the positions are filled.
