Uppsala University, Sweden, invites online application for the opening of Post Doc in Biology for local PhD
Postdoctoral Researcher in Evolutionary Biology
This postdoctoral position forms a part of a new project on genetic conflict, funded by the European Research Council and the Swedish Research Council. The entire project will employ some 6-8 postdocs and PhD students, apart from a full time TA and the PI, and will strongly encourage interactions and collaborations within the group.
Salary and appointment: Period of appointment is two years. Uppsala University adopts an individual salary policy but the starting salary for postdoctoral researchers is typically about 29.000 SEK per month and includes full social benefits.
Eligibility:
The successful candidate must have a Ph.D, or an exam which is judged comparable to a PhD, that was completed within three years of the application deadline. Applicants that received their PhD earlier than this date will be considered if special circumstances exist (such as prolonged periods of illness, parental leave, military service, union duties and others of similar character).
Qualifications and merits:

Qualifications and merits:
We seek candidates with a documented expertise in quantitative genetic analyses and with a firm understanding of life history theory. Experience of laboratory work with insects is a merit as is previous experience of work with respirometry assays of metabolism. Because the holder of this position will collaborate and interact closely with other members of the group, we will put emphasis on both independence and ability to collaborate.
To apply:
To apply:
Candidates should submit a cover letter, a curriculum vitae including a list of publications and a short (1-3 pages) description of past research accomplishments and future research ambitions.
