About this position
The STRI SIFP Biodiversity Genomics Postdoctoral Fellowship supports postdoctoral research at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute in Panama. Fellows join collaborative research at STRI and apply comparative genomic approaches to questions in biodiversity, evolution, and ecology.
The project area includes phylogenetics, population genomics, metagenomics, and transcriptomics, with a clear emphasis on genomic methods for studying biodiversity. The fellowship is part of the Smithsonian Institution Fellowship Program and is designed for researchers who want to carry out advanced postdoctoral work in STRI’s research environment.
This opportunity is framed as a collaborative fellowship rather than a single fixed-project appointment, giving the awardee scope to pursue genomics-based research within STRI’s biodiversity-focused scientific setting.
