Dear colleagues,
I have presently a open PhD position in my lab at the Department of Zoology, Stockholm University. I would be extremely happy if you pass this information to any ambitious and capable student you know of.
The position is a 4-year fully funded position including all social benefits. The project is funded by the Swedish research council and the Bolin centre for climate research. The new PhD project will focus on the evolution of life cycle timing in situations where insect species show rapid distributional changes as well as shifts in the number of annual generations, i.e. when there are shifts in voltinism. In particular the new project aims at exploring Ecological genetics and genomics of seasonal life cycle regulation and will explore the genomic background and genetic architecture of adaptations for seasonal plasticity using different species of butterflies that are well established ecological models in the Gotthard lab. We aim to test fitness effects of this genetic variation in both field and laboratory experiments. The project will build on existing ecological knowledge, well developed laboratory and field methods, as well as genomic resources that are in place for all three species. The specific research direction for the PhD project can be discussed in relation to the interests and skills of the new student.
I am looking for candidates with a strong interest in evolutionary ecology, genetics and life history theory, with excellent analytical skills and experience with quantitative analyses of life history traits and genetics. Application deadline is February 15, 2023 For more information the candidate are more than welcome to contact me (karl.gotthard@zoologi.su.semailto:karl.gotthard@zoologi.su.se) Follow this link to be directly taken to the full advertisement and application process. https://www.su.se/english/about-the-university/work-at-su/available-jobs/phd...
