Doctoral Position in Groundwater Microbial and Viral Ecology and Environmental Bioinformatics ETH Zürich in Switzerland

2-year postdoctoral position at the University of Copenhagen , Department of Biology, Faculty of Science, in the area of modeling of microbial soil carbon cycling . The project is a genome-informed microbial biogeochemical modeling postdoc focused on quantifying microbial traits from metagenomes and using them to develop a microbial-explicit version of the dynamic vegetation model LPJ-GUESS . You will join the Center of Excellence VOLT (Center for Volatile interactions), working with microbial e...

Eawag, the Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology, is advertising 3 PhD positions in Evolutionary Ecology , Evolutionary Genomics , and Ecosystem Science within the Department of Fish Ecology & Evolution (FishEc). The project is part of a recently funded Swiss National Science Foundation grant and will investigate how biotic and abiotic selection pressures shape species interactions, community assembly, and ecosystem functioning in lakes of Southern Greenland . The research fo...

Agroscope is advertising a postdoctoral researcher position in metabolites of pesticides in groundwater at its Wädenswil workplace in Switzerland . The project focuses on processing monitoring data on pesticide metabolites in groundwater, combining these data with approved application rates and sales figures for the relevant active ingredients, and compiling Predicted Environmental Concentrations (PEC) for metabolites detected in monitoring. The role also includes characterizing land use in grou...

The Microbial and Ecosystem Ecology Unit at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST), Japan, is seeking motivated PhD students and research interns for fully funded positions. The unit studies how environmental factors such as vegetation type, land-management practices, and climate change shape terrestrial microbial communities. Research interests include microorganisms that form symbiotic associations with plants, soil organic matter decomposition, nutrient cycling, carbon storage...

Research Associate in Marine Biogeochemistry at Imperial College London , based at Silwood Park Campus (hybrid). This is a full-time, fixed-term research post for up to 2 years, funded by UKRI through Horizon Europe . The role sits within the OceanSOS project, an interdisciplinary international consortium studying how seamounts and the currents they generate influence the biological carbon pump and marine carbon cycling. The successful candidate will work on marine biogeochemistry , ocean carbon...
