The College of Biological Sciences at the University of Minnesota
announces *up to two tenure-track positions in fungal biology* at the
assistant professor or associate professor level. The position(s) will
complement a faculty cluster focused on plant and fungal evolution.
Research that facilitates collaborations in evolutionary genomics,
phylogenetic systematics, evolutionary ecology, molecular biology or
cellular biology of fungi is of special interest. We welcome applicants
working in any area of fungal biology and are particularly interested in
those whose research explores the interface between organismal and
genetic approaches to the study of evolutionary processes.
The position(s) in the Fungal Evolution cluster are part of a larger
cluster hiring effort. The College of Biological Sciences at the
University of Minnesota is hiring 16 scientists to form six
interdisciplinary clusters in emerging areas of biology that connect
with other STEM disciplines. The research clusters are organized around
the following research themes: cellular biophysics, functional
proteomics, fungal evolution, genome variation, microbial systems and
synthetic biology, and theoretical biology.
Interested in joining the CBS faculty as part of a collaborative fungal
evolution research cluster? Visit the college’s cluster hiring website
for detailed information and to apply: http://z.umn.edu/cbsclusterhiring
Applicants are encouraged to submit materials by *November 1, 2012* for
consideration by the search committee.
