The Centre for Ecology, Evolution and Environmental Changes (University of Lisbon), is looking for a research technician in experimental evolution. The technician will work on a project investigating the evolution of reproductive isolation in C. elegans, under supervision of Dr. Bruno Nevado (https://ce3c.ciencias.ulisboa.pt/member/brunonevado) and Dr. Ivo Chelo (https://sites.google.com/view/eco-evolutionarygeneticslab/home).
The position will ideally start in March 2022, and is funded for 21 months. It would suit recent University graduates looking to gain experience in research before embarking on a post-graduate study program.
The main responsibilities include maintenance of experimental lines of C. elegans and assessment of their fitness throughout the experiment. We are preferably looking for candidates with experience in laboratory work, but training will be provided to successful candidates without such skills but with a keen interest in research in evolutionary biology.
Application deadline is approaching soon (call closes on 14th February) so apply now if interested: https://euraxess.ec.europa.eu/jobs/733894.
For informal inquires please contact Bruno Nevado (bnevado@fc.ul.pt).
