Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark Københavns Universitet Full time

We are seeking a highly motivated and dynamic postdoctoral researcher to join our team at the University of Copenhagen. The successful candidate will be responsible for assembling the genomes of 50 barley varieties using both short and long-read sequencing data.

Our Research
The project will be hosted within the Centre of Hologenomics, led by Assistant Professor Christopher Barnes. Our group is focused on integrating genomic, microbiome, and environmental data to understand the host's phenotype. We emphasize collaboration and teamwork in our work environment.

Your Role
You will be working on generating genomic data from 50 carefully curated barley lines. Your task will be to perform hybrid assemblies on these data, establishing a pipeline for parallel processing on our high-performance computing cluster. Assembled genomes will be used within the BarleyMicroBreed project, a large collaboration with 12 partners from 10 countries.

Requirements
We are looking for a scientist with a PhD in genomics, ideally in plant genomics. You should have experience with both short and long-read sequencing data, as well as a strong interest in collaboration and teamwork. Excellent communication skills and the ability to work in a team are essential. Proficient English skills are required.

Working Conditions
The place of employment is at the University of Copenhagen. We offer a stimulating work environment with access to world-class molecular laboratories and a high-performance computing cluster.
