PhD Candidate on the project IceAGenT
The position

The University Museum at The Arctic University Museum and Academy of Fine
Arts seeks 1-2 candidates who wish to obtain the degree of Philosophiae
Doctor (PhD). The positions are on the project "IceAGenT - Ice Age
Genomic Tracking of Refugia and Postglacial Dispersal". The positions
are for four years, and vacant from 1st October 2019.

The project

In the ERC funded project IceAGenT, we will develop innovative methods for
studies of ancient and modern DNA. We will build on existing data as well
as core new lakes for ancient sedimentary DNA. This will be supplemented
by studies of contemporary phylogeography. The aim is to revisit glacial
survival and postglacial dispersal, with the ultimate aim of unifying
phylogeography with palaeoecology.The successful candidate will do
metabarcoding and lithological analyses on lake-sediment cores from the
northern Europe to obtain information on past vascular plant species. This
will be supplemented by studies on past and current phylogeography.
