We have openings for fellowships (postdoctoral and technical-level
TT-V) within the consortium Genomics of the Brazilian Biodiversity.
The consortium is a partnership between the Vale Institute of
Technology (ITV) and the Chico Mendes Institute for Biodiversity
Conservation (ICMBio) and is sequencing chromosome-level reference
genomes and population-level resequenced genomes for species of
conservation interest. The project aims to contribute to public
conservation policies for Brazilian species by producing high-quality
genomic data (Vila�a et al. 2024 Cell Genomics) and is funded by
Vale until 2027 in the order of USD$25 million. ITV is a privately
funded research institute in Bel�m, Par�, Brazil and has a
state-of-the-art laboratory infrastructure able to generate all
data in-house and high-performance computing resources. I am looking
for fellows to join our team and contribute to projects focused on
conservation genomics.

The 12-month fellowships can be fully remote, with a monthly stipend
of BRL$9320 Brazilian reais (~USD$1500). Applicants should have a
strong background in genomics, with experience in chromosome-level
reference genomes assembly (1 position) and/or population genomics
(2 positions).

Details of each position with minimum requirements can be found
here:
https://portalfadesp.org.br/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Edital-de-Bolsas-ITV-DS.pdf
(pages 62,63 and 69). While postdoctoral fellowships require a
completed PhD,  TT-V fellowships require at least 5 years of
experience after an undergraduate degree or a finished PhD.
Applications have to be submitted through the FADESP website
(https://portalfadesp.org.br/?page_id=47784) before January 10th,
2025. Please note that the cover letter needs to be submitted in
Portuguese. Interviews are expected to happen during the first week
of February.
