PhD position available!
The Bradburd Lab at Michigan State University has a fully funded 5-year PhD position to work on NIH-funded research developing statistical methods in spatial population genetics. Possible research areas include: spatiotemporal models for the analysis of ancient and modern DNA; two-locus models for the analysis of spatial population structure over genealogical strata; spatial models for identifying adaptive introgression or studying polygenic adaptation; and many more! These ideas are just jumping off points - I work with PhD students in my lab to help them develop their own thesis projects.
Research in the Bradburd Lab combines computational and statistical approaches, with a strong emphasis on empirical data analysis. No previous experience with any of these is required - we'll teach you everything you need to know! Just looking for folks excited about learning these skills.
The Bradburd lab values diversity and is committed to creating a safe, welcoming, and supportive lab environment. Applicants who are also passionate about diversity, equity, and inclusion in STEM are strongly encouraged.
Information on how to apply can be found at the Integrative Biology grad program page. If you're interested in the position, please contact me (bradburd[at]msu[dot]edu) and let me know that you're thinking about and/or planning on applying. I'm happy to answer any questions you might have!
