About this position
PhD opportunity in plant genomics and evolution at CICA–Universidade da Coruña (Spain). The project is linked to an FPU 2026 fellowship and welcomes motivated candidates interested in joining research on plant evolutionary genomics.
Possible research lines include: Iberian endemic plants (hybridisation, phylogenomics, conservation genomics), tropical trees (biogeography, species delimitation, domestication using modern, historical and ancient DNA), and deleterious mutations in plants (classic and AI-based approaches to predict harmful genetic variants).
The successful candidate will have access to fully equipped molecular biology laboratories for DNA extraction, purification, quantification, and genomic library preparation, plus target-capture and high-throughput sequencing services, bioinformatics resources, and high-performance computing infrastructure.
This is a PhD opening; the post does not mention a postdoc or master’s position. Interested applicants should send their CV to [email protected].
