PhD position in Animal Ecology

Dear all, 
 
We are looking for a PhD-student in Animal Ecology.  The project will focus on hybridisation between two closely related species. Particular focus will be on the common bream and the white bream (Abramis sp.), two closely related freshwater fish species that currently hybridize to some extent and that run the risk of collapsing into a single unit (gene-pool). The PhD project will contain a range of approaches including genetic studies, field and lab experiments and mathematical modelling. A major aim will be to derive a risk analysis for loss of biodiversity in Swedish freshwater lakes.

The project is a collaboration between Richard Svanbäck (richard.svanback@ebc.uu.se) och Nicklas Backström (niclas.backstrom@ebc.uu.se) at Uppsala University and Åke Brännström at Umeå University (ake.brannstrom@umu.se)

You are welcome to submit your application no later than June 12, 2019, UFV-PA 2019/1829.
