Postdoctoral Researcher

An NIH-funded postdoctoral position is available in the lab of Matthew Hahn in the Department of Biology and Department of Computer Science at Indiana University, Bloomington. The work will address the developmental origin and evolution of de novo mutations, using rhesus macaque as a focal species. Our lab has studied mutation rates across mammals, and this project aims to look more closely at which developmental stages drive differences in mutation rates between species. The postdoctoral candidate will also be encouraged to carry out independent work.There is a wide variety of research going on in the lab in addition to the current project. For a summary of our work, please see: https://hahnlab.sitehost.iu.edu/Indiana University has an active group in evolutionary genetics, and considerable computational resources.
