PhD and Postdoc Positions in Veterinary Science in China

Vid Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences i Uppsala söker Institutionen för tillämpad husdjursvetenskap och välfärd en postdoktor till ett forskarteam inom idisslarnutrition med fokus på mjölkkor . Rollen är inriktad på forskning om hur hållbara produktionssystem kan utvecklas inom mjölkproduktion, med särskild betoning på att optimera resurser, betes- och foderutnyttjande samt att minska klimat- och miljöpåverkan. Det huvudsakliga forskningsinnehållet rör metanreduktion och dess effekter ...

This postdoctoral position at CNRS is part of the ECO-EVO BIODIV project, which develops an integrative eco-evolutionary approach to understanding biodiversity and its dynamics. The project brings together concepts and methods spanning biodiversity levels, biological groups, intra- and interspecific variation, and the spatial and temporal processes that shape them. The advertised research focuses on building and analysing theoretical models of simple trophic modules, such as a predator, two prey...

This doctoral opening at Malmö University focuses on standardizing multi-omics approaches for research based on oral fluids, with the aim of supporting more reproducible disease-related science. The project title signals an emphasis on bringing together omics technologies and developing more consistent methods for analyzing oral-fluid samples. The position is based at Malmö University, an innovative and internationally oriented university in Sweden. The advert presents the university as a collab...

USDA-APHIS Chronic Wasting Disease Study Fellowship is a research opportunity with the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) in Fort Collins, Colorado. The project sits within the National Wildlife Research Center’s Chronic Wasting Disease Project and focuses on delivering research products that protect producers and natural resources from wildlife diseases and damage. The fellow will contribute to the continued development and implementation of a mu...

About the project This PhD project focuses on elbow dysplasia (ED) in dogs , a common hereditary developmental disorder affecting the elbow joint. The work aims to improve knowledge about risk factors, optimal treatment, long-term outcome, and prognosis, with the broader goal of improving treatment results and animal welfare for affected dogs. The project includes several sub-projects and combines epidemiological and clinical approaches. The doctoral student may take part in journal-based studie...

This PhD position is based at the Department of Aquatic Resources at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU Aqua) and focuses on the management and conservation of critically endangered fish, with a particular emphasis on eel ( Anguilla ). The project addresses key knowledge gaps around trap and transport (T&T) , a management method used to support fish migration in river systems with barriers and to reduce turbine mortality for downstream-moving fish. The doctoral project is desig...

This research opportunity with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service (USDA-ARS) in Ithaca, New York, focuses on the use of entomopathogenic fungi and microbial communities as biocontrol agents against plant-damaging invertebrate pests. The project centers on understanding how fungi, bacteria, and their microbial metabolites and toxins can suppress pests such as the invasive emerald ash borer and economically important soybean and potato cyst nematodes. The selected pa...

This postdoctoral position at Umeå University is based in the Department of Clinical Microbiology and is part of a research environment focused on host-microbe interactions, microbial disease mechanisms, and immune responses. The project is led by Annasara Lenman and addresses early mechanisms in respiratory and enteric virus infections, with a particular interest in how virus-host interactions shape disease severity and may reveal new treatment strategies. The successful postdoc will work on a ...

This PhD project explores how living microorganisms can be used as environmental sensors and memory systems . Rather than relying on conventional disposable electronics, the research asks whether organisms that naturally integrate environmental signals can be decoded to reveal the conditions they have experienced over time. The student will work on understanding the visual and structural responses of microorganisms to different environmental conditions, then build computational methods that can ...
