extension) in systems biology of Atlantic salmon metabolism are available at
the Department of Animal and Aquacultural Sciences, NMBU, Norway. The
successful candidate will work within the Centre for Integrative Genetics (<a href="http://www.cigene.no/" target="_blank">CIGENE</a>), which includes comprehensive
molecular lab facilities and a strong environment dedicated to genomics,
bioinformatics, and mathematical modeling.</span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;line-height:normal"><font size="2"><span>The researchers will work on two interlinked systems biology
projects, <a href="http://tinyurl.com/digisal" target="_blank">DigiSal</a> and <a href="http://tinyurl.com/GenoSysFat" target="_blank">GenoSysFat</a>, promoting sustainable
growth of salmon farming by building model-based knowledge about salmon
metabolism. The projects are highly interdisciplinary and combine expertise in
physiology and nutrition, cutting-edge high-throughput omics technologies and
model-based analysis of omics data. We will encourage visits to international
collaborators such as the Systems and Synthetic Biology unit in Wageningen, the
Netherlands.</span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;line-height:normal"><font size="2">Main tasks: <span>Analyze how salmon metabolism depends
on variation in diet and genotype, based on omics and microscopy data and using
a variety of modelling frameworks, both top-down multivariate analysis and
bottom-up metabolic network modelling. There will also be opportunities to link
modelling work to ongoing evolutionary genomics projects to address questions
regarding consequences of genome duplication on the function of metabolic
systems.</span></font></p>
