Research Positions


University of Hyderabad
Research Positions in Tomato Functional Genomics and Metabolomics
At University of Hyderabad, we are having a vibrant group on Tomato Functional
Genomics, which is working on TILLING (Targeting Induced Local Lesions IN Genomes), Insertional Mutagenesis, proteomics and fruit ripening in tomato. Some of the current aims of the group include using reverse genetics to isolate tomato mutants delayed in ripening, having high lycopene and folate content in tomato fruits and analysis of light and hormonal signal transduction pathways. For recent publications of the group see (Plant Physiol 156: 1424-1438; Molecular Plant 3: 854-869; Plant Methods 6: 3; Plant Methods 5:18; Plant Signaling and Behavior 5:11.).
Currently we have research associate positions available under “Tomato Metabolome Network” (ToMaNet) funded by Dept of Biotechnology under following projects entitled “Biofortification of tomato by targeted manipulation of the biosynthetic pathways” under supervision of Prof. R.P. Sharma, and “Interaction between Proteome and Metabolome Networks during Tomato Fruit Ripening” under supervision of Dr. Y Sreelakshmi at Dept of Plant Sciences, School of Life Sciences, University of Hyderabad. The research associate would be offered fellowships of Rs 24,000/- pm + HRA. The qualifications for the Research
Associate Positions are as follows:
Research Associate I: Applicants should have experience in plant functional genomics, RNAi/VIGS, Next Gen Sequencing preferably in tomato or other crop plants and should be supported by publications. PhD in molecular biology is required.
Research Associate III: Applicants should have experience in bioinformatics for
handling genome sequencing/proteome/metabolite analyses and should be supported by publications. PhD in Bioinformatics is required.
Research Associate IV: Applicants should have experience in proteomics-2D/DIGE/LCMS and also in characterizing PTMs and should be supported by publications. PhD in biochemistry/protein chemistry is required.
Candidates interested in above positions should send their CV, a statement clearly explaining how their skills are relevant to the position and the name/contact information for three references.
The candidates can send their application by email at rameshwar.sharma@gmail.com and/or syellamaraju@gmail.com on or before February 25th, 2012.
No TA/DA would be provided for attending the interview. We also have few openings for CSIR/UGC/DBT JRF candidates for pursuing PhD in above research areas. The interested candidates can send CV to above email addresses.
