Postdoctoral Research Position, Drosophila microbiota 

The Jani lab at the Pacific Biosciences Research Center of
the University of Hawai??i, M??noa, is recruiting a postdoctoral
researcher to work on a project that aims to understand the stability
and function of animal-associated microbiota when faced with pathogens
and environmental perturbations. The project leverages both laboratory
Drosophila melanogaster and wild Hawaiian Drosophila species to
understand interactions between the microbiome and pathogens in the
context of environmental stressors. The successful candidate will
design and execute laboratory studies on the microbiota of Drosophila ;
conduct bioinformatics and data analyses; expand the field aspect of
the project. There are opportunities to expand the research based on
the incumbent???s specific research interests as they align with the
overall project objectives. To apply, go to the  job listing on the
U. Hawaii website. Email questions to jania-at-hawaii.edu.
