New faculty positions in Synthetic Biology/Bioinformatics

Building off our launch of the Yeast 2.0 Synthetic Biology project at Macquarie University, we have just advertised three new junior faculty positions (level B/C- roughly equivalent to Assistant Professor in the USA). Two of these positions are in Synthetic Biology and the third position is in Bioinformatics. We also have three postdoctoral positions to be filled on the Yeast 2.0 project. The plan with these appointments is to build a critical mass of researchers in Synthetic Biology at Macquarie, and position ourselves as leaders in this field in Australia. 

The Macquarie University web site tell me that applications for these positions closes on 11:55pm Sunday 31 August 2014, Australian Eastern Standard Time. If you are interested in one of these positions, I encourage you to apply or to contact me if you have any further questions.
