Postdoc Opportunities in Agriculture in Switzerland

Lab of Biomedical Microfluidics (LBMM) at EPFL is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher for a project on highly multiplexed single-cell RNA-seq-based antibody discovery. The work sits at the intersection of single-cell biology, next-generation sequencing, microfluidics, and translational antibody discovery. The successful candidate will join a lab that has developed technology platforms in biomedicine and genomics and that combines a technology-development environment on the EPFL campus with a tr...

The Policy & Sustainability (PASU) lab at EPFL invites applications for a postdoctoral fellow to join a new SNSF-funded project on managing a just transition to net zero. The project combines applied and theoretical research on the economics and politics of sustainable development, with a strong focus on how decarbonization policies affect workers, regions, and public preferences. The postdoctoral researcher will contribute to three main strands of work: measuring economic and job vulnerabilitie...

Eawag’s Department of Fish Ecology and Evolution is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to investigate fish migration and life history variation in anadromous Arctic charr. The project examines how glacial inputs shape fjord environments and how these environmental differences influence the ecology, movement patterns, foraging, phenotypic divergence, and local distinctiveness of Arctic charr populations. The research will compare populations using glacial-fed and tundra streams, fjords influenced ...
