Requirements: |
Candidates should have a strong background in molecular population genetics
and/or molecular genetics. Skills in bioinformatics and programming are
desirable. Experience of high throughput polymorphism detection methods
would also be favorable. Strong motivation, communication skills and
commitment are expected. |
|
Short Description: |
The project aims at understanding the historical and
selective determinants of the differentiation of the house mouse subspecies,
leading to partial incompatibility and reproductive isolation. The approach
will combine the study of the patterns of coalescence of genes within and
among subspecies with that of the patterns of introgression across a hybrid
zone between the subspecies, and will take advantage of the growing
knowledge of the mouse genome sequence variation and functional genomics. |
