The successful candidate will join a group investigating the mechanisms by which individual cell fates are patterned during development, particularly the role of transcription factors in distinguishing cells in the hindgut (Woollard and Hodgkin, Genes Dev., 14: 596-603, 2000) using a wide variety of molecular genetic and biochemical techniques. Applicants should be competent to manage the day-to-day running of a research project and should have good communication skills, the ability to work as part of a team and should be able to demonstrate a sound publication record. Applicants should also possess a PhD or equivalent, and have a strong interest in the genetics of development. Experience in molecular biological techniques, or of C. elegans, would be an advantage. The position is funded by the University for one year in the first instance. Salary in the range =A316,286 - =A324, 479, depending on qualifications and experience.
