工作内容：
真核微生物占有超过 99% 的真核生物多样性，在各种生态系中扮演重要的角色。
随着近来技术发展，我们有越来越多的工具能研究它们的遗传与功能，
并探讨真核生物复杂的细胞构造和生活史的起源与演化。
本研究室今年刚成立，目前有两个主要课题
海洋微藻的基因体与生殖：着重在会行钙化作用（将钙离子及二氧化碳衍生物转
为可沉积之碳酸钙）的钙板藻。
真核生物巨病毒演化与基因调控：巨病毒是一群目前已知最大型的病毒，广泛存在于海洋
及其他生态系，并感染各种真核生物（如非洲猪瘟、鱼、昆虫、各种变形虫及藻类）。
可依兴趣讨论并发展其他相关课题。
分析资料来源：
进阶定序技术
高通量单一细胞方法
体学（基因体、转录体及其它）
数据库与大资料分析
流式细胞仪、显微镜与分生技术

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.
