*Two Post-doctoral Positions in Transcriptomics, Metabolomics, and
Proteomics of Interactions between Ash and the Emerald Ash Borer *
* *
*The Ohio State University*
*September 2009*
Two postdoctoral positions are available _immediately_ to use
transcriptomic, metabolomic, and proteomic approaches to study the
mechanistic basis of ash resistance to the emerald ash borer. The
project is a cooperative effort among the labs of Pierluigi (Enrico)
Bonello (Plant Pathology, OSU,
http://plantpath.osu.edu/faculty-and-staff/faculty-directory/bonello-pierluigi-enrico),
Om Mittapalli (Entomology, OSU,
http://entomology.osu.edu/personnelsingle.asp?strid=3693), Dan Herms
(Entomology, OSU,
http://entomology.osu.edu/personnelsingle.asp?strid=287), and Don
Cipollini (Biological Sciences, Wright State University,
http://www.wright.edu/~don.cipollini). One post-doc working on the
host side will be mentored by Bonello and will work at OSU in
Columbus, OH, while the other working on the insect side will be
mentored by Mittapalli and will work at OSU/OARDC (Ohio Agricultural
Research and development Center) in Wooster, OH.
Candidates for this position should have a strong record of
accomplishment in the areas of molecular plant-insect or plant-microbe
interactions, with emphasis on one or more of the following areas:
transcriptomics, metabolomics, proteomics and modern bioinformatics.
Experience working with woody plants and/or insect genomics is
desirable but not necessary. The departments and the university offer
state of the art facilities and the positions provide competitive
salaries and full benefits. The positions are initially available for
two years and are renewable, contingent upon performance and
availability of funding.
Interested persons should send a complete CV, including the names of
at least three references, to Dr. Pierluigi (Enrico) Bonello, Dept. of
Plant Pathology, The Ohio State University, 201 Kottman Hall, 2021
Coffey Road, Columbus, OH 43214, USA; tel - +1-614-688-5401; fax -
+1-614-292-4455; email: [email protected].

applications from individuals with disabilities, minorities, veterans,
and women. EEO/AA employer.
