Postdoctoral Position available in Microfluidics, Evolutionary Demography
and Individual Variability of Bacteria
The Department of Biology and Max-Planck Odense Centre on the Biodemography
of Aging, University of Southern Denmark is looking for a highly talented,
creative, independent, and motivated postdoctoral fellow to join our newly
established lab on evolutionary demography. The project aims at our
understanding of evolution of individual variability of isogenic E. coli
bacteria by collecting demographic data using life imaging and a
high-throughput microfluidics device.

The lab has an international and multidisciplinary character. The position
is available from spring/summer 2013 for initially one year, with extensions
of up to three years. Odense is a lively and youthful historical city on
Funen, with a bustling social scene. It is little more than an hour away
from Copenhagen.

We are looking for a highly motivated candidate with a PhD degree in
microfluidics, molecular biology, microbial biology, ecology, evolution, and
a sound interest in demography, quantitative biological methods and
experimentation. Experiences in some of the following fields of cell
culturing, molecular manipulation, microscopy, image analysis,
microfluidics, molecular transformations, quantitative analyses, or
mathematical modelling are a plus. A strong motivation in acquiring some of
these skills is expected. Excellent communication skills and an ability to
interact socially and scientifically with other laboratory members and
collaborators are essential. The working language is English.

The successful applicant will be employed in accordance with the agreement
