Description
School of Biology, Salary: Ł30,122 - Ł32,901 per annum, Start Date:
As soon as possible, Fixed Term: 3 years
A three-year post-doctoral position is available to work in the laboratory
of Mike Ritchie at the University of St Andrews, on a project which
is collaborative with Stephen Goodwin at the University of Oxford. The
aim is to adopt a multidisciplinary approach to examine the evolution
of the fruitless gene in Drosophila. Studies will include sequencing,
population genetics and selection analysis, genetic manipulation and
behavioural analysis, and expression analysis. The ideal candidate

interest in the genetics of sexual behaviour and/or speciation. A PhD
is essential and a work permit will be required for non-European citizens.
The work will be based at the Centre for Biological Diversity at
the University of St Andrews, Scotland and will involve visits to
collaborators (especially but not only at Oxford) and potential
field-work.
