18 months postdoc position at The Biometry and Artificial Intelligence
Unit of INRA (French National Institute for Agricultural Research) in
Toulouse, France.
The project, funded by the French Research Agency, aims at incorporating
linkage disequilibrium into linkage mapping analysis, in order to fine
map QTL. It consists in developing statistical methods using linkage
disequilibrium for predicting similarity of genitor alleles in a
multiple families design, and developing the necessary software tools.
The aim is to attribute, at every locus of the genome, for the alleles
of the genitors in the design, (i) a measurement that accurately
reflects the identity by descent probability with the ancestral alleles,
or (ii) a probable coalescence tree to enable ancestral alleles to be
tracked.
The candidates should have a strong background in statistics and/or
genetics. The project will also require a programming skill.
