 Eawag, the Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology, is an internationally networked aquatic research institute within the ETH Domain (Swiss Federal Institutes of Technology). Eawag conducts research, education and expert consulting to achieve the dual goals of meeting direct human needs for water and maintaining the function and integrity of aquatic ecosystems.Professorship in Pathogen Evolution (ETH Zurich and Eawag) is seeking a highly motivated PhD Candidate to study drug resistance evolution in various pathogens through population genetic modelling. PhD position in Drug Resistance Evolution (m/f/d)Project backgroundThe main objective of the project is to develop a polygenic model to investigate the mechanisms underlying drug resistance evolution, focusing in particular on ploidy, reproductive mode and lifestyle. The target organisms will be bacteria, fungi and parasitic worms. While the position is theoretical, the student is encouraged and expected to collaborate with our experimental collaborators. More information about the project can be found on the project website. The position is for 48 months. 
The group (PI: Prof. Barbora Trubenova) is hosted by Eawag Department of Aquatic Ecology in Dübendorf and ETH Zurich Department of Environmental Systems Sciences (Institute of Integrative Biology). The workplace is at Eawag Dübendorf campus. PhD students of the group matriculate at ETH Zurich. 
The ideal candidate can work independently or as part of a small team, has strong self‐motivation, and is able to develop new skills to explore new topics. The project requires the ability to work collaboratively in a multidisciplinary research environment, and excellent communication and data analysis skills. The working language is English. 
Strong candidates have a master's degree in Biology, Mathematics, Physics, computer science, or a related field, with a strong interest in biological evolution. Previous experience in mathematical modelling of biological processes is valuable.
