Hey students: if you are looking for a summer internship in marine metagenomics and you can get your application together before June 16th, Jonathan Eisen posted information about an open position on his blog.
It also looks like he's looking for post-docs (see the side bar on the right of this page.)

Since I'm attending a human microbiome meeting today, I'll repost this question about the utility of metagenomics:
NIH, in about six months, will release a huge sum of money to fund the study of the human 'microbiome': those microorganisms that live on or in us.
Last Sunday I was on a panel at the American Society for Microbiology meetings. I'll post a slidecast of the talk in a few days, and get into the topic of the panel in more detail then.
Thanks for the posting. I am indeed looking for post docs ... see here for more detail.
Anytime!
