Graduate Position – Insect Sociogenomics

The lab or Dr Graham Thompson at the University of Western Ontario
Canada (http://www.uwo.ca/biology/Faculty/thompson/index.htm) is
seeking at least one highly motivated and creative person to pursue
graduate research at the MSc or PhD level. The lab is launching a new
research programme in the field of insect sociogenomics — the study
of how genes and gene networks contribute to variation in social
phenotypes.

There are several potential projects available for development,
including 1) gene-regulation of termite societies, 2) immunogenetics
of termite or honey bee societies, and 3) gene-regulation of selfish
egg-laying behaviour, among other related ideas. Applicants would
ideally have some experience in population genetic or genomic
techniques, be willing to work in the field and at the bench, and be
mindful of the genetical theory of social evolution.

For more information on admission to The Department of Biology, the
graduate scene, core facilities, and living in London Ontario Canada,
follow links from the Biology @ Western homepage
http://www.uwo.ca/biology/ and Graduate homepage
http://www.uwo.ca/biology/graduate/graduate.htm. Potential applicants
can contact me, or otherwise send a CV, an unofficial transcript and
a brief statement, together with the names of potential referees, to
graham.thompson@uwo.ca

The anticipated start date is September 2008, though May 2008 is
possible. The position(s) will remain open until filled.
