I was a postdoc on the Gene Expression database at Jax years ago, and Bar Harbor is a great place to be. The winters are a little long..but the summers are worth it.

This just came across the mouse mailing list, thought I'd pass it along.

Applicants should have training or experience as a database developer. Specific technical skills required include Unix/Linux, shell scripting, Java, SQL (preferably PostgreSQL), and HTML.

The Jackson Laboratory is one of the world's foremost centers for mammalian genetics research. Located in Bar Harbor, Maine, the lab is adjacent to Acadia National Park. Mountains, ocean, forests, lakes, and trails are all within walking distance. If you love high tech challenges but you're looking for a more natural environment, this could be the opportunity you've been searching for.
