**Post Doctoral Fellow (PDF), Veterinary Biomedical Sciences**:
**Project Title**:
Bison Integrated Genomics and Assisted Reproductive Technologies for Germplasm Biobanking (BIG ART)

**Primary Purpose**:
Bison are an integral part of the ecology of Canadian national parks. Parks Canada, along with other bison management agencies, requires genomic tools to provide solutions to manage zoonotic diseases and improve gene flow among herds without the risk of introducing disease.

**_ The overall goal of the BIG project_** is to ensure the existence of healthy, genetically diverse bison, without domestic cattle or subspecies introgression, and with long-term sustainable genetic diversity in Canada’s bison herds. The **_specific objectives_** for this position are to facilitate the establishment of a bison genome biobank through:

- Collection of bison semen and oocytes from isolated conservation herds for _in-vitro_ embryo production, germplasm cryopreservation and dissemination
- Refinement and validation semen and embryo disinfection techniques to prevent disease transmission
- Management of genomic and germplasm data to ensure genetic composition and genetic diversity of bison subspecies.

**Nature of Work**: We are looking for energetic and productive postdoctoral fellow who possesses laboratory skills related to assisted reproductive technologies.

**Typical Duties or Accountabilities**:
**Qualifications**

**Experience**: To enhance the multidisciplinary aspect of our research team, we are looking for a postdoctoral fellow who has laboratory expertise with in
- Field collection of oocytes for in vitro embryo production,
- Validation of embryo disinfection to prevent disease transmission
- In vitro exposure in-vivo documentation of effectiveness by embryo transfer (ET)
- In vivo potential exposure in-vivo documentation of effectiveness

**Additional Skills**: Strong interpersonal skills, excellent written and oral communication skills, team building and problem-solving skills.

**To Apply**:

- A cover letter outlining research interests and goals
- Curriculum vitae with a detailed list of research skills relevant to the position
- Contact information for three referees
