>Dear Colleagues
>
>We recently described a novel pest population control strategy using
>transgenic insects (RIDL, Thomas et al., Science 2000 287:2474-2476).
>I'm looking for a post-doc to help move our method into insects of
>medical and agricultural significance, ie initially medfly and
>mosquitoes, rather than just Drosophila which we used for the initial
>demonstration.  Considerable further development of the system in
>Drosophila will also be involved.  I'd be very grateful if you would
>encourage any suitable applicants that you can think of to contact me by
>email or at the address below.  The ideal candidate would have
>experience of molecular biology and Drosophila or other insect rearing
>and basic genetics.  The position is funded by the Wellcome Trust for
>three years and is available immediately.

>Many thanks,
