Postdoctoral Fellow in Paleogenomics of the Arctic Ocean at NORCE Research (ERC Synergy i2B Project) NORCE Research in Norway

A 4-year PhD Research Fellow position in Population Genomics is available at the Natural History Museum, University of Oslo in Norway. The project is embedded in an academic environment focused on biological sciences and evolutionary research, and it includes 25% career-enhancing work such as curation, teaching, supervision, research support, and public outreach. The PhD project will investigate the colonisation of high latitudes by North Atlantic killer whales (Orcinus orca) . The research aims...

PhD opportunity in Multimodal AI for Forest Biodiversity Mapping at the Norwegian Institute of Bioeconomy Research (NIBIO), Norway. The project is part of the National Forest Inventory and focuses on developing cutting-edge multimodal artificial intelligence methods for forest biodiversity mapping and monitoring . The research will combine heterogeneous data sources such as remote sensing , forest inventory data, existing forest maps, environmental and climatic variables, and large-scale AI repr...

PhD Research Fellow in Population Genomics at the Natural History Museum, University of Oslo (Oslo, Norway). This 4-year PhD fellowship is centered on population genomics , evolutionary biology , ancient DNA , and bioinformatics . The project will reconstruct the colonisation of high latitudes by North Atlantic killer whales and investigate how populations responded to past climatic warming at the Pleistocene–Holocene transition. The work combines an existing dataset of ~200 contemporary genomes...

University of Bergen is advertising a PhD Research Fellow position in remote sensing and modelling of alpine vegetation change at the Department of Biological Sciences, Norway. The project is part of the Mountains-in-Motion Research Team led by Associate Professor Suzette Flantua . It focuses on how alpine ecosystems in Norway are changing, especially the expansion of willow shrubs (Salix spp.) into open mountain vegetation under climate warming, land-use change, and reduced grazing pressure. Th...

GEUS (the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland) is offering a 3-year PhD position in Arctic Molecular Ecology in Copenhagen, Denmark, as part of the POLARIS project, “Probing the future of Arctic marine productivity from the ocean seafloor” , funded by the Carlsberg Foundation. The expected start date is 01-01-2027 . The project focuses on how Arctic phytoplankton communities respond to climate and environmental change. Phytoplankton are the base of Arctic marine food webs, and their commu...
