Two 3-year Postdoc positions at the Institute of Evolutionary Biology at the University of Warsaw (Application Deadline: 15/2/2022; starting date: April 2022) - ideally with background in specimen-based to quantitative evolutionary (paleo)biology/(paleo)ecology/(paleo)parasitology (PhD) to join the (future) team of Kenneth De Baets working on PARADIVE: the integrated study of parasitism, biodiversity and environmental change.

1st Postdoc (UW/IDUB/2021/91) is more focused on (bio)informatics/programming/data science and setting up an invertebrate paleopathology database and collected new data involving molluscs and/or echinoderms across extinction events to model the association between parasite prevalence and host diversity: https://inicjatywadoskonalosci.uw.edu.pl/wp-content/uploads/sites/11/2022/01/job-UW_IDUB_2021_91_EN.pdf

2nd Postdoc (UW/IDUB/2021/90) is more specimen-based and focuses on parasitic remains associated with vertebrate coprolites and species distribution modeling to co-phylogeny to test the impact of climate change and host extinctions: https://inicjatywadoskonalosci.uw.edu.pl/wp-content/uploads/sites/11/2022/01/job-UW_IDUB_2021_90_EN.pdf

There is also a research and technical specialist position (UW/IDUB/2021/89; Deadline: 31/1/2022) which will be closely collaborating with the same team: https://inicjatywadoskonalosci.uw.edu.pl/wp-content/uploads/sites/11/2022/01/job-UW_IDUB_2021_89_EN.pdf
