Department of Wildlife, Fish, and Environmental Studies
Project:
The Department of Wildlife, Fish, and Environmental Studies, SLU, Umeå, is looking for a postdoc in the area of behavioural ecology and mating systems evolution, with a focus on fishes. The postdoc will develop research exploring fundamental questions, using a combination of field- and lab-based research approaches. Moreover, the postdoc will relate such findings to applied scenarios (e.g., species invasions, chemical pollution, global change). The postdoc will use both wild fish from northern aquatic ecosystems as well as model lab organisms as study systems.

Duties:
The postdoc will conduct large-scale field and laboratory experiments addressing fundamental questions in the evolution of sociality and mating systems. The postdoc will also collaborate on projects within the larger Aquatic Ecology research group, lending their expertise to applied projects focusing on species invasions and fish behavioural responses to environmental pollutants.

Qualifications:
The applicant should hold a PhD in ecology, psychology, biology or equivalent. We are looking for a highly motivated and team-oriented candidate with documented experience in either behavioural ecology, field research, and/or fish ecology. Documented statistical skills (e.g., in R) are a prerequisite for the position. Experience with the collection and caretaking of fish, genotyping, and having a scientific scuba diving certification will count as merits.
