A collaborative research centre (SFB) has recently been funded by the German Research Foundation for the period 2018 to 2021 to produce a conceptual and empirical synthesis of individualisation across behaviour, ecology and evolution. As part of this collaborative research centre, a total of 9 Postdoc positions (E13), 16 PhD positions (E13/65%) and 2 half-time technician positions (E8 or E9/50%) are available at Bielefeld University, the University of Münster and the University of Jena from 1st of February 2018 or as soon as possible thereafter across 19 Projects (see below for more details). The SFB will provide exceptional opportunities for interdisciplinary collaboration and academic networking, together with structured training, scientific exchange and early career support programmes.
Profile
We seek bright and highly motivated postdoctoral researchers, biological technicians and students with very good Master (or equivalent) degrees who ideally have ample experience in relevant topics (e.g. animal behaviour, behavioural ecology, chemical ecology, population ecology, evolutionary ecology, evolutionary genomics, theoretical ecology, philosophy of science). Ideal candidates will be able to work both independently and as part of a multidisciplinary team.
