Ph.D. POSITION IN DE NOVO GENE/NONCANONICAL ORF EVOLUTION

A Ph.D. position is available in the Casola Lab at Texas A&M University
(http://agrilife.org/casolalab/). We develop novel computational
approaches to study the evolution and function of de novo genes and
noncanonical ORFs across multiple taxa.  Our group collaborates with
other laboratories to experimentally characterize the biological impact
of de novo genes.

Prospective students may be accepted through any of the following graduate
programs at Texas A&M:

Genetics (http://genetics.tamu.edu/)
Ecology and Evolutionary Biology (http://eeb.tamu.edu/)
Ecology and Conservation Biology (https://eccb.tamu.edu/)

Experience in comparative genomics/evolutionary genomics is
required.  Prospective students should contact Dr. Claudio Casola
(claudio.casola@ag.tamu.edu) and to submit a CV and a brief statement
of interest before formally applying.
