To be considered, applicants must have a PhD in population genetics/genomics, bioinformatics, or a similar quantitative field. The ideal candidate will have:

  • A strong background in population genomics
  • Experience in working with genetic data, including high-throughput whole genome DNA sequencing data
  • Programming skills in at least one common programming language (e.g. C/C++, Python, or R)
  • Experience in working with Linux/Unix and command lines
  • Good interpersonal and communication skills
  • Published high-quality international peer-reviewed articles
