Master’s Thesis on Bacterial and Archaeal Diversity in Swiss Lakes Eawag: Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology in Switzerland

Doctoral Position in Groundwater Microbial and Viral Ecology and Environmental Bioinformatics at ETH Zürich The Geomitigation of Greenhouse Gases group at ETH Zürich is recruiting a highly motivated doctoral candidate to join a newly funded SNSF interdisciplinary project. The project examines how microbial and viral communities shape carbon cycling in groundwater systems, combining environmental microbiology, microbial ecology, viral ecology, environmental genomics, hydrogeochemistry, and bioinf...

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...

PhD Student Position at the University of Neuchâtel (UNINE), Switzerland , in the Laboratory of Evolutionary Genetics with Prof. Daniel Croll . The project focuses on evolutionary genomics and fungal biology , with research directions including: genomic basis of rapid adaptation to host plants, climate and agrochemicals; tracking transposable element expansion dynamics; causes and consequences of fungal genome plasticity; and recapitulating evolutionary processes using DNA language models / LLMs...

Postdoctoral Researcher in Data Science and Predictive Modelling for Potato Production Systems at Agroscope in Nyon, Switzerland (80%). This postdoctoral opening focuses on data science , machine learning , statistics , and predictive modelling for agriculture. The successful candidate will develop models to predict virus infection risk in Swiss seed potato production and to model potato dormancy and sprouting under different storage conditions. The work combines agronomic, climatic, physiologic...
