Postdoc in experimental evolution

A post-doctoral researcher position (12 month, renewable once) is available
to work in collaboration with both of our groups from June 2023.

The objective of this post-doctoral project is to design, run, and analyze
a series of experimental evolution studies in which different environmental
factors (such as temperature, food, or chemicals) are manipulated to
distinguish the roles of adaptation, plasticity, and genetic constraints
on the evolution of the transcriptome.

We are looking for a motivated early career evolutionary biologist, with
a PhD degree obtained after 2018. Previous experience with experimental
evolution would be appreciated, including lab work with
micro/macro-organisms, basic molecular biology (DNA and RNA extraction),
population genetics, and bioinformatics skills.

The position will be part of a 3-year project funded by the French
National Research Agency (ANR). The small research consortium includes
2 PIs (Arnaud Le Rouzic and Anne Genissel), a PhD Student, an ANR-funded
technician, and the current post-doc. This project aims at understanding
and predicting the evolution of transcriptomes under stable and fluctuating
selection combining both theoretical and empirical approaches. The post-doc
will be co-advised by both PIs. He/she will be formally based at EGCE
(Institute for Ecology and Evolution, IDEEV), and will perform the
experimental work at BIOGER (Agro-Campus). Both institutes offer an
exciting and active scientific life; they are located 3 km apart, on
the new research campus of Paris-Saclay, 35 km south of Paris.
