工作內容：
真核微生物佔有超過 99% 的真核生物多樣性，在各種生態系中扮演重要的角色。
隨著近來技術發展，我們有越來越多的工具能研究它們的遺傳與功能，
並探討真核生物複雜的細胞構造和生活史的起源與演化。
本研究室今年剛成立，目前有兩個主要課題
海洋微藻的基因體與生殖：著重在會行鈣化作用（將鈣離子及二氧化碳衍生物轉
為可沉積之碳酸鈣）的鈣板藻。
真核生物巨病毒演化與基因調控：巨病毒是一群目前已知最大型的病毒，廣泛存在於海洋
及其他生態系，並感染各種真核生物（如非洲豬瘟、魚、昆蟲、各種變形蟲及藻類）。
可依興趣討論並發展其他相關課題。
分析資料來源：
進階定序技術
高通量單一細胞方法
體學（基因體、轉錄體及其它）
資料庫與大資料分析
流式細胞儀、顯微鏡與分生技術
工作福利:

Jobs:
Bioinformaticians or computational biologists
Location:
Institute of Plant and Microbial Biology, Academia Sinica, Taiwan
Principal investigator:
Chuan Ku

https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=1BDzxq8AAAAJ&hl=en
https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6414-4423
Responsibilities:
1. Learning about current methods and topics in the field of research
(15%; e.g., literature research, courses).
2. Participating in the science activities at the Institute and the Academia
(5%; e.g., seminars, workshops)
3. Data analyses, discussion (60%)
4. Presentation of results (20%; e.g., meetings, conferences, publications)
Research topics:
We are broadly interested in microbial eukaryotes, tiny organisms with complex
cells like those of animals and plants. They are mostly invisible to the naked
eye, but account for half of the carbon fixation and many other ecological
processes on our planet.
Currently our research focuses on the genomics of marine microalgae and giant
viruses infecting eukaryotes. Successful candidates can also develop other
projects related to microbial eukaryote evolution and ecology.
Requirements:
1. a degree in informatics, biology, natural sciences, or any related field
2. motivation to work in a research environment
3. ability to work both independently and as part of a team
4. sufficient English skills for reading, writing, and oral communication in science (the working language at the institute is English)
5. skills:
1. R language
2. another programming language (Python, Perl, C++, or others)
3. Linux/Unix environment
4. experience in working on a biological project
(e.g., sequencing/genomic/evolutionary analyses)
Any of the following would be a plus, but not required:
1. experience in artistic design and common graphics editor programs
2. server/database management
3. high-performance computing
4. geographic information systems
5. bioimage analyses
6. web development
7. other relevant skills (please describe)
Salary:
1. Every year there is a bonus comparable to 1.5-month salary, so the annual
salary is the monthly times 13.5.
2. Starting salary for a master's graduate: NTD 45,000/month (NTD 607,500 p.a.)
3. Starting salary for a doctoral graduate: NTD 66,000/month (NTD 891,000 p.a.).
4. Adjusted according to the candidate’s experience and qualifications.
5. The contract can be renewed each year with a salary increase of about 3%.
Additional raise is possible.
6. Postdoctoral candidates are encouraged and will be assisted by the PI to
apply for competitive fellowships.
About the lab:
This is a newly founded lab. Passionate researchers from around the world are
welcome to join us. We encourage science communication and international
exchange by providing funding for attending conferences/workshops/courses in
Taiwan and abroad. Short-term exchange abroad in collaborating labs is also
possible. Lab dinners and an annual lab retreat will be arranged.
Please send your application to Chuan Ku (chuanku[at]gate.sinica.edu.tw):
1. The email title should be: IPMB_application_XXX (XXX is your full name)
2. Please briefly describe in the email your research interests, experience,
skills, future plan, and contact details of two referees.
3. The attachment should be a single PDF that includes your CV, transcripts,
degree certificates, (if any) (preliminary) thesis title and abstract , and
(if any) proofs of skills and experience.
Notes:
1. These are excellent job opportunities for people who like to take challenges
, solve problems, and contribute to our knowledge, who are looking for a
long-term (3 years or longer) job in research, or who seek to proceed to
further study/research and want to acquire the relevant experience and to have
a good record of research accomplishment in the near future.
2. Preference will be given to candidates who can work longer.
3. Candidates with only a bachelor’s degree may be considered.
4. Necessary trainings in the field of research will be provided by the
PI/other lab members/IPMB/AS/courses.
5. The starting date could be any time this year. Candidates who are going to
graduate are also welcome to apply.
6. If you have your ideal starting date and salary range, please mention them
in the email.
7. Shortlisted candidates will be invited for an interview.
8. Informal inquiries (preferably with CV attached) are welcome.
