• Designing and conducting experimental studies in microbial ecology

• Developing and applying conceptual and mathematical models

• Identifying key ecological questions and translating them into testable hypotheses

• Performing rigorous statistical analyses

• Communicating findings through publications and presentations

• Contributing to a friendly, collaborative, and inclusive research environment

Eligibility and Requirements

Applicants should have no more than two years of postdoctoral experience at the time of appointment. We are looking for candidates with expertise in:

• Ecological theory and modeling

• Experimental microbial ecology

• Study design and hypothesis generation

• Statistical analysis of ecological data

• Scientific communication and dissemination

Additional Opportunities

The postdoc will also make career-appropriate contributions to teaching and have the opportunity to develop supervisory experience, for example by mentoring Bachelor’s project students.
