Contrato de 4 años en el Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales estudiando genómica de peces
4-year PhD contract on fish comparative genomics. Thegenomic basis of replicated water-to-land transitions in amphibious fish The Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales The MNCN belongs to the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC), the largest and most important research agency in Spain. The MNCN is a diverse and scientifically stimulating environment and a reference center for biodiversity. The PhD will be associated with the Department of Biodiversity and Evolutionary Biology, with strength in genomics. The Working Group We use major evolutionary transitions as study systems to understand the patterns and processes underlying biodiversity. Specifically, we are interested in understanding the genomic basis of adaptations associated with one of the most drastic and physiologically challenging habitat transitions: from water to land. We have a strong focus on phylogenomics and comparative genomics and strive to use integrative approaches. The project will be developed with intern...
