The research group Dynamic Macroecologystudies questions related to spatial ecology, macroevolution and biodiversity conservation.Within its Horizon-Europe research project “Understanding the connectivity and dynamics of Avian Influenza in wild birds, poultry and the environment - KappaFLU” the group is looking from spring 2024 for the duration of 2 years (with option for 1 year extension) for
With partners from the Friedrich-Löffler-Institute (Germany), Erasmus Medical Center (The Netherlands), Linneaus University (Sweden), Royal Veterinary College (UK), and the Animal and Plant Health Agency (UK), seeks to identify the viral, host and environmental factors that determine the dynamics and spread of avian influenza. In work package 1, we will particularly investigate the role of movements of migratory bird populations in disease spread and dynamics to ultimately predict it at the European scale.
Both PostDocs will use and further develop state-dependent dynamic migration models to predict movements of individual birds under current and potential future environmental conditions.
PostDoc 1 will:
PostDoc 2 will: extend bird migration models to explicitly incorporate infection dynamics to predict (1) the spatial spread of viruses, and (2) potential outbreaks (risk assessment). compare model predictions to surveillance data
You should have a PhD degree in environmental or data sciences and a background in migration ecology and/or disease ecology. Strong quantitative and programming skills (e.g., in R/C++) are required and previous experience with migration models is an asset. We also expect good communication skills in English, the ability to work independently as well as in a team. KappaFlu explicitly encourages close collaboration with other partners and subprojects and supports regular exchange and research visits.You will be based at WSL in Birmensdorf and work in collaboration withthe groups of Simeon Lisovski (Alfred-Wegener-Institute Potsdam, D) and Jonas Waldenström (Linnaeus University Kalmar, Sweden).
Please upload your complete application to Beatrice Lamprecht, Human Resources WSL, through our webpage. Applications via email will not be considered. The application should include: 1) a cover letter with a statement about your previous research, your vision for the future of your career and your motivation to work on this project; 2) a curriculum vitae including (if applicable) the list of publications or PhD thesis topics and abstracts; 3) copies of your academic qualifications (i.e., diplomas); and 4) names and contact information of 3 academic references.
