> Dear Colleagues,
>
> I am reaching out because I am trying to recruit talented postdocs to 
> my lab. We have gotten off to a great start and I think the 
> environment here would make for a productive, exciting postdoctoral 
> experience.
>
> The Brito lab (www.britolab.org <http://www.britolab.org/>) works in 
> the area of systems biology of the human microbiome, with a specific 
> focus on horizontal gene transfer and antibiotic resistance. We are 
> developing new technological methods to capture additional genomic 
> information than what is currently available using metagenomic shotgun 
> approaches. I also have several projects in the area of precision 
> engineering of the human microbiome to achieve therapeutic outcomes.
>
> There are a range of projects in the lab relating to: clinically 
> relevant populations (i.e. inflammatory bowel and neutropenic 
> patients); environmental transmission of antibiotic resistance and 
> other mobile genes; genetic engineering of bacteria; and international 
> research related to the microbiome. Postdoctoral candidates can be 
> either experimentally or computationally focused, or both. The lab 
> strives on the diverse backgrounds of students and postdocs 
> (e.g. microbiology, biomedical engineering, computational biology and 
> genetics). Start dates are flexible, but could be as early as this 
> Fall. Interested late-stage graduate students or recently-obtained 
> PhDs, should send me a cover letter and CV. Promising candidates will 
> be invited for an interview.
>
> Ithaca is a magical place, and is apparently one of the best towns to 
> live in by several national surveys. Cornell has a close-knit vibrant 
> academic community with a growing microbiome contingent. My lab has 
> collaborations across the university, including at the medical school 
> in NYC and at the veterinary school. Overall, it makes for a great 
> place to do research.
>
> Please forward this email to relevant listservs or students who you 
> think would be a good fit!  And thanks so much for your help!
>
> Cheers,
> Ilana
