PhD Studentship - Genetic Load, Fitness and Conservation in the Seychelles Warbler University of East Anglia in United Kingdom

University of California, Irvine is advertising occasional postdoctoral scholar positions in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology within the Charlie Dunlop School of Biological Sciences . This opening is for researchers interested in work across ecology and evolutionary biology, with appointments sponsored by faculty members in the department. The advert describes a general postdoctoral scholar series rather than a single fixed project, so successful candidates may join ongoing res...

Jessica da Silva, Principal Scientist at the South African National Biodiversity Institute (SANBI), is looking for a potential postdoctoral candidate for an NRF Postdoctoral Fellowship (PDP) position in conservation genetics and biodiversity assessments . The proposed project sits at the intersection of population modelling , conservation policy , and biodiversity science, with opportunities to contribute to South African and international conservation initiatives. The successful candidate would...

PhD opportunity at the University of East Anglia in Evolutionary Genomics of Mimicry in Neotropical Catfishes , hosted by the School of Biological Sciences and supervised by Dr Martin Taylor . This project explores how mimicry evolves in Neotropical Corydoradinae catfishes, using comparative and population genomics to study repeated origins of similar colour patterns across more than 30 mimicry communities in South America. The research asks which genomic regions show divergent selection, whethe...
