PhD fellowship in Conservation Genetics University of Basel Workplace Basel - North West Switzerland - Switzerland Category Life Sciences | Environment Position Junior Researcher / PhD Position Published 11 December 2025 PhD fellowship in Conservation Genetics (100%) / March 1, 2026, or negotiable The group of Plant Ecology and Evolution, Department of...

**Your position** Our new research projects generally focus on (a) genomic signatures of climate adaptation, (b) signatures of genetic drift, including mutational load, and (c) conservation genomics. Our group has recently (long-read-) sequenced the genomes of individuals of many populations of North American Arabidopsis, and of a handful of Brassicaceae...

Your position New computational and analytical tools in population genetics allow to estimate both contemporary and past effective population sizes. With these in hands, the project aims to verify how well reported dynamics of decline in rare plant species align with inferred trajectories of effective population size. Conversely, the project will also...

**Your position** The newly funded project by the Aptenia Foundation, Basel, addresses how the vegetation of calcareous grasslands has been changing and why some outcrossing plant species are under particular threat. The work involves vegetation surveys, time series analysis and experimental work on the role of mate versus insect pollinator limitation in...

The Department of Environmental Sciences at the University of Basel invites applicants to apply for a PhD position in evolutionary biology of microalgae as part of the SNSF Ambizione project: "Key functional and morphological innovations in a rapid evolutionary radiation of diatoms in African Lake Tanganyika" awarded to Dr. Elena Jovanovska. This project...

**Project Description** Diatoms are among the most successful life forms on Earth, having taken over a substantial role in regulating the global oxygen balance and climate that other microalgae maintained for nearly a billion years. Their ecological and evolutionary success has made them dominant and diverse, yet the mechanisms behind this success remain...

**NCCR AntiResist - PhD Fellowship Call 2025** **The National Center of Competence in Research (NCCR) AntiResist** is a Swiss-wide research consortium funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF). AntiResist is transforming antibiotic discovery and development through in vitro modelling of in-patient conditions in order to address antibiotic...
