*Postdoctoral position in Biology of non-indigenous Diatoms *<BR><BR>We seek
applications for an opening in biology of non-indigenous<BR>diatoms. This
position is at the Postdoctoral level. The project is a<BR>part of the Canadian
Aquatic Invasive Species Network (CAISN) research<BR>program funded by NSERC to
examine temporal changes in genetic<BR>variability of aquatic invasive species
(AIS) brought to Canada in<BR>ships' ballast waters. The goal is to identify key
factors that affect<BR>survival and establishment of ship-transported diatoms.

candidates will have proven experience in biochemistry and<BR>microbial
molecular biology. Knowledge of diatoms will be an asset but<BR>is not
essential. Initial support will be for 12 months, with the<BR>possibility of
continuation pending satisfactory performance.<BR><BR>To apply, please send a
curriculum vitae, thesis abstract and/or<BR>representative publications and
