Funded PhD in Conservation Genomics, Multi-omics, eDNA and Catchment Data at Ulster University

Funded PhD opportunity at Ulster University in the PEARL-MAP / PEARL-OMICS partnership. The project focuses on conservation genomics and integrates multi-omics , eDNA , and catchment data to understand stress and restoration responses in endangered freshwater pearl mussels in Ireland. This PhD is suitable for graduates in biomedical science , biological science , environmental science , bioinformatics , or a related field. Coding and sequencing experience are welcome but not essential, and the project includes training. Supervisors listed are Dr Rachelle Irwin , Professor Diane Lees-Murdock , and Dr Joerg Arnscheidt . Funding: funded PhD. Deadline: 8 January 2027, 4:00 pm. How to apply: review the project details and application information via the linked page, then submit your application before the deadline.
