Evolutionary Biology Professors and Supervisors in Luxembourg

Two funded PhD positions are available in Kenneth Dumack’s group at the University of Koblenz, Germany, investigating an unusual photosynthetic rhizarian and its complex plastid. The projects aim to determine how the plastid was acquired and how this organelle is integrated into the eukaryotic cell. One PhD project centers on evolutionary genomics and bioinformatic physiology, offering a computational perspective on plastid evolution and cellular function. The second project focuses on cell biol...

The Henn Laboratory at the University of California, Davis is seeking a postdoctoral scholar to work at the intersection of human genetics, population genomics, and evolutionary inference. The project brings together two connected research directions: selection-guided GWAS methods applied to underrepresented African populations using the Northern Cape Tuberculosis Cohort, and inference of adaptive evolution at HLA/MHC loci in admixed populations. The postdoc will contribute to a research program...

A postdoctoral scholar position is available in the Tarvin Lab in the Department of Integrative Biology and the Museum of Vertebrate Zoology at the University of California, Berkeley. The project focuses on the genetic and physiological basis of kleptocnidy in nudibranch mollusks, a striking biological process in which these animals steal and store microscopic stinging structures (nematocysts) from their prey. The postdoc will work in a collaborative research environment that connects Berkeley’s...
