2 Positions as Scientific Researcher
full-time (100%)
We (kokkonuts.org) are interested in strengthening our research team that works on life history evolution in a broad sense, including the evolution of ageing, sexual reproduction, and evolutionary conflicts. We are therefore offering two postdoctoral positions.
Both positions are offered for 3 years, ideally starting in January 2025 (with considerable flexibility). You will join a research group that will offer collaboration prospects within the group, with other researchers at JGU, as well as elsewhere via Prof. Kokko’s international network. Short- and long-term visitors, from workshops to sabbatical-length visits, bring in excellent prospects for collaboration and idea exchange between the postdoc and other theoreticians/empiricists as well.
The precise topic of position (1) will be developed together with the postdoc (see application procedure below), while the postdoc of position (2) will take part in a new collaboration between Prof. Kokko, Prof. Bouwhuis (https://sites.google.com/site/drsandrabouwhuis/) and Dr. Vedder (https://ifv-vogelwarte.de/en/home-ifv/staff/dr-oscar-vedder). This collaboration has a focus on life history theory, but also offers opportunities for field- and experimental work on common terns and/or captive quails, respectively.
