Postdoctoral Research Fellow position at the Michael Sars Centre, University of Bergen, in the Čapek group. The project, Mechanisms of temperature robustness in fish embryos , asks how fish embryos maintain coordinated development when temperature changes the rates of molecular and cellular processes. The successful candidate will investigate how temperature influences developmental signalling and gene expression, and how these responses connect to cell-fate specification, tissue organisation an...

Questions
Should I email professors before submitting my PhD application?
Yes. A well-targeted email can significantly improve your chances in many research-based programs.
What should I include in my first email to a professor?
A brief introduction, research interests aligned with the professor’s work, CV, and (if available) publication links.
How long should I wait before following up with a professor?
Typically 7–14 days. One polite follow-up is considered acceptable.
Is it better to send the same email to many professors?
No. Personalized emails that clearly match the professor’s research receive far better response rates.
Do I need a full research proposal when contacting professors?
Usually not initially — a short research summary is sufficient unless the professor specifically requests a full proposal.
