Two Fully Funded PhD Positions in Plant Community Ecology and Ecosystem Functioning University of Bern in Switzerland

University of Oulu is advertising a Postdoctoral Researcher position in Ecology and Genetics , within the Global Change and Biotic Interactions Ecology group led by Professor Anu Eskelinen . The project is funded by the Research Council of Finland and focuses on mechanisms of plant biodiversity change . The research is centered on how plant biodiversity responds to global change drivers such as climate warming , nutrient enrichment , competition, herbivory, dispersal, seed banks, and intraspecif...

Eawag, the Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology, is offering a Master’s thesis project in freshwater ecology , evolutionary dynamics , biodiversity , and ecosystem functioning focused on subarctic lakes in Greenland. The project is hosted by the Department of Fish Ecology and Evolution (FishEc) and contributes to a newly funded Swiss National Science Foundation project on eco-evolutionary community assembly in subarctic lake ecosystems. The research context is especially exc...

Cardiff University School of Biosciences is advertising an MSCA PhD studentship in the area of biotic interactions and response diversity , with a planned start in April 2027 . The project, led by Fredric Windsor (Senior Lecturer, Cardiff University), asks whether interactions between organisms can homogenise responses and reduce response diversity at the community level. The research will combine modelling and experiments , making it a strong fit for students interested in ecology, environmenta...
