Positions are available in the following major areas at various levels (Professors, Associate Professors, or Assistant Professors): 1. Bioinformatics: Research focus on analysis of large-scale data sets, development of databases and bioinformatics tools to integrate large data with biological questions. The candidate should have a keen interest in, and commitment to, collaborating with various biology research groups. 2. Natural product chemistry/chemical ecology: Research focus on chemical communication in aquatic animals (with a focus on fish), using any combination of chemistry, organic chemistry, chemical ecology, observational behavior, and physiology approaches. The candidate should have previous experience in isolation, purification, and structure elucidation of compounds. 3. Animal physiology: Research focus on endocrinology using fish models is preferred, but could include comparative physiology, molecular and physiological bases of behavioral traits, and chemical ecology. 4. Neurobiology: Research focus on function and evolution of olfaction and/or neuroendocrine systems using any combination of genomic, molecular, cellular, anatomical, physiological, and behavioral approaches. Positions 1 to 4, please contact: Liang Jia, [email protected] 5. Marine science: Research focus on atmospheric and ocean dynamics, fisheries oceanography, stock assessment, environmental oceanography, systematic ecology, numerical methods for oceanography, and polar science. 6. Marine technology: Research focus on satellite ocean remote sensing, marine optics, technology of marine spatial databases, and marine geographic information systems. Positions 5 to 6, please contact: Gong Caixia, [email protected] We are also looking for people with research backgrounds in agriculture, science, engineering, economics, arts, and management to join our university.
