Missions
The objective is to investigate interactions and feedbacks between microbes and their chemical environment with specific focus on vital trace metals in the Southern Ocean. The aim is to explore links between microbial communities and/or individual microbial taxa and the distribution and speciation of trace metals.
Activités
The successful candidate will use bioinformatics approaches to analyse already existing metagenomes, and statistical tools to explore relationships between biological, physical and chemical features. The PostDoc will therefore interact with a multidisciplinary team of physical, geochemical and biogeochemical oceanographers.
Compétences
Experience in high-throughput sequencing data analysis (familiarity with the UNIX terminal environment; management of big data on clusters; running of Perl & Python scripts) and statistical tools (multivariate analyses in combination with supervised and non-supervised clustering methods). Background in microbial ecology and marine biogeochemistry is preferred, but not requested.
Contexte de travail
The LOMIC is a joint CNRS-Sorbonne University research unit located in Banyuls sur mer. The LOMICs main objective is to better understand the reciprocal interactions between microorganisms and the marine environment. Research carried out at the LOMIC cover the study of marine biogeochemical cycles, microbial ecology, diversity and physiology of phototrophic and heterotrophic microbes, and ecotoxicology. The PostDoc will contribute to two research axes of the LOMIC that are 'Biogeochemistry and microbial diversity' and 'Regulation of microbial functions by environmental parameters'.
