The Post-doc will join the local and international team of the project “Microbial
biodiversity and Carbon Use Efficiency as Nature-based solution (NBS) for soil carbon
stabilization (BIOCUE)”. BIOCUE investigates how NBS affect soil carbon balance by
studying their impact on microbial diversity, function, and Carbon Use Efficiency (CUE)
(https://www.biodiversa.eu/2025/04/08/50695/). The successful candidate will contribute
to the experimental work, data analysis, preparing manuscripts, and publishing them in scientific journals, presenting the research outputs at local and international conferences and engaging with stakeholders. The post-doc will also collaborate to analysis and publication of experimental data from a previous Biodiversa+ project from the same team
(GradCatch, https://www1.bio.ku.dk/gradcatch/ ).
Post-doc starting 01.03.2026 for a period of 2 years (starting can be delayed some
months if required by the selected candidate).

- Requirements: PhD in biology or environmental sciences, with a strong background in ecology and microbiology.
- Solid knowledge of data analysis and excellent writing skills.
- A collaborative mindset.

To apply for this position, you will need to submit your CV including names and contact of two referees. The call will appear and be open from 19 to 31st of January 2026 in this link: https://www.udg.edu/en/coneix/treballa-a-la-udg/personal-docent-iinvestigador/convocatories-carrec-projectes/ofertes-de-treball-temporal-post

Here is my #introduction - I am a #microbial #ecologist with Eawag: #Swiss Federal Institute of #Aquatic #Science and Technology in the Surface Waters department. Interested in the role of #microbes in #biogeochemistry of #lake, #river, #sediment & #wastewater. Also #research on #AntibioticResistance in the #environment.
We use #metagenomics, #metatranscriptomics #qPCR and good old-fashioned #microbiology.

#introduction (toot!)

I'm a computational biologist at #UHManoa studying microbial ecosystems in the pacific ocean

...currently obsessing over marine phage and phage satellites: https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2212722119

In addition to #bioinformatics, #metagenomics, and #environmentalmicrobiology, I'm here to follow #sciart, #environmentalequity, #ultimate (the sport), and anything else interesting and beautiful.
