標題: [徵才] 中研院 海洋微藻研究室 生物資訊研究人員
時間: Mon Jul 15 12:16:31 2019
【職缺名稱】
生物資訊研究人員
【徵才單位】
中央研究院 植物暨微生物學研究所
真核微生物/海洋微藻演化與生態研究室
研究室主持人：顧銓
【工作地址】
台北市南港區研究院路二段128號中研院植微大樓
（鄰近南港車站、南港捷運站、南港展覽館捷運站）
【工作內容】
主要課題：
1. 海洋微藻的基因體與生殖：海洋微藻佔地球總生物質量不到1%，卻佔了全球每年二氧化
碳固定量的50%，在環境、生態、元素循環及氣候調節中扮演了不可或缺的角色。
本研究室著重於全球廣泛分佈的藻類 鈣板藻，其獨特之處在於會行鈣化作用（將鈣離子及
二氧化碳衍生物轉為可沉積之碳酸鈣）。藉由最先進的基因體與轉錄體定序技術，我們希
望能了解鈣板藻的起源與演化、染色體變異、雙倍體與不會鈣化的單倍體之間的轉換以及
海洋大規模藻華的族群動態與遺傳。
其他：
1. 真核生物巨病毒演化與基因調控：巨病毒是一群目前已知最大型的病毒，廣泛存在於海
洋及其他生態系，並感染各種真核生物（脊椎動物（如：非洲豬瘟）、昆蟲、各種變形蟲
及藻類）。
2. 其他真核微生物演化或生態的課題，歡迎討論。
【徵才條件】
1. 碩士學位（符合其他條件但只有學士者亦歡迎來信詢問）
或
2. 博士學位
其他條件請見【其他備註】
【薪資待遇】
1. 碩士：月薪 NTD 45000 起
2. 博士：月薪 NTD 66000 起
依經驗、能力與預期成果調高月薪，於起聘前討論。每年調薪。
年終 1.5 個月薪。

Jobs:
Bioinformaticians or computational biologists
Location:
Institute of Plant and Microbial Biology, Academia Sinica, Taiwan
Principal investigator:
Chuan Ku
https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=1BDzxq8AAAAJ&hl=en
https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6414-4423
Responsibilities:
1. Learning about current methods and topics in the field of research
(15%; e.g., literature research, courses).
2. Participating in the science activities at the Institute and the Academia
(5%; e.g., seminars, workshops)
3. Data analyses, discussion (60%)
4. Presentation of results (20%; e.g., meetings, conferences, publications)
Research topics:
We are broadly interested in microbial eukaryotes, tiny organisms with complex
cells like those of animals and plants. They are mostly invisible to the naked
eye, but account for half of the carbon fixation and many other ecological
processes on our planet.
Currently our research focuses on the genomics of marine microalgae and giant
viruses infecting eukaryotes. Successful candidates will focus on the
evolutionary and ecological genomics of coccolithophores, the only group of
microalgae that are capable of calcification, converting carbon dioxide and
calcium into calcite (chalk) platelets that can be sedimented at the bottom of
the ocean.
People can also develop other projects related to microbial eukaryote evolution
and ecology.
Requirements:
1. a degree in informatics, biology, natural sciences, or any related field
2. motivation to work in a research environment
3. ability to work both independently and as part of a team
4. sufficient English skills for reading, writing, and oral communication in
science (the working language at the institute is English)
5. skills:
1. R language
2. another programming language (Python, Perl, C++, or others)
3. Linux/Unix environment
4. experience in working on a biological project
(e.g., sequencing/genomic/evolutionary analyses)
Any of the following would be a plus, but not required:
1. experience in artistic design and common graphics editor programs
2. server/database management
3. high-performance computing
4. geographic information systems
5. bioimage analyses
6. web development
7. other relevant skills (please describe)
Salary:
1. Every year there is a bonus comparable to 1.5-month salary, so the annual
salary is the monthly times 13.5.
2. Starting salary for a master's graduate: NTD 45,000/month (NTD 607,500 p.a.)
3. Starting salary for a doctoral graduate: NTD 66,000/month (NTD 891,000 p.a.).
4. Adjusted according to the candidate’s experience and qualifications.
5. The contract can be renewed each year with a salary increase of about 3%.
Additional raise is possible.
6. Postdoctoral candidates are encouraged and will be assisted by the PI to
apply for competitive fellowships.
About the lab:
This is a newly founded lab. Passionate researchers from around the world are
welcome to join us. We encourage science communication and international
exchange by providing funding for attending conferences/workshops/courses in
Taiwan and abroad. Short-term exchange abroad in collaborating labs is also
possible. Lab dinners and an annual lab retreat will be arranged.
To apply:
Please send your application to Chuan Ku (chuanku[at]gate.sinica.edu.tw):
1. The email title should be: IPMB_application_XXX (XXX is your full name)
2. Please briefly describe in the email your research interests, experience,
skills, future plan, and contact details of two referees.
3. The attachment should be a single PDF that includes your CV, transcripts,
degree certificates, (if any) (preliminary) thesis title and abstract , and
(if any) proofs of skills and experience.
Notes:
1. These are excellent job opportunities for people who like to take challenges
, solve problems, and contribute to our knowledge, who are looking for a
long-term (3 years or longer) job in research, or who seek to proceed to
further study/research and want to acquire the relevant experience and to have
a good record of research accomplishment in the near future.
2. Preference will be given to candidates who can work longer.
3. Candidates with only a bachelor’s degree may be considered.
4. Necessary trainings in the field of research will be provided by the
PI/other lab members/IPMB/AS/courses.
5. The starting date could be any time this year. Candidates who are going to
graduate are also welcome to apply.
6. If you have your ideal starting date and salary range, please mention them
in the email.
7. Shortlisted candidates will be invited for an interview.
8. Informal inquiries (preferably with CV attached) are welcome.
