Job - Taxonomically Intelligent Phylogenetic Database

[Roderic Page]

A postdoc position is available for up to three years in Rod Page's lab 
to develop a taxonomically intelligent phylogenetic database.The 
project aims to explore methods of making phylogenetic databases such 
as TreeBASE "taxonomically intelligent" by linking them to information 
on taxonomic names, synonyms, and classifications. The immediate goal 
of this proposal is not the creation of a new database, but rather to 
tackle the key intellectual obstacles that stand in the way of creating 
a usable phylogenetic database.

Details of the project are online at 
http://taxonomy.zoology.gla.ac.uk/Jobs/BBSRC2005/ . The post is for up 
to three years, with salary in the range £19,460 - £21,640 per annum.
