Vacancy PhD Studentship on Complex Trait Analysis What? Four-year bursary PhD position, fully funded When? Available from January 2008 Job description Project 1: The aim of this PhD position is to help unravel the genetic basis of agriculturally/evolutionary important traits using association- and linkage mapping approaches. The prospective student will be involved in the analysis of data from a large, densely genotyped natural collection of the flowering plant Arabidopsis thaliana and a novel multi-family panel of recombinant inbred lines. The nature and magnitude of these data will provide an unprecedented high-resolution picture of the genetic variation underlying complex phenotypes and will make it possible to systematically integrate information from natural as well as experimental populations. The task is to build an analytical/computational framework to facilitate such an integrative analysis. As an extension, different types of –omics data will be collected from these populati
