Dear colleagues,
Please see below for an ad regarding post-doctoral opportunities at
Ohio State for work on the emerald ash borer. Feel free to
distribute as you see fit.
Thank you for your cooperation.
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 -
