Postdoctoral Research Associate (Ecology and Evolutionary Biology)
Department of Biological Sciences - University of Hull
Applicants with a strong background in evolutionary biology and/or ecology are invited for the position of post-doctoral Research Associate to investigate the impacts of climate change on farmland ecological networks. The post holder will use both novel molecular approaches and ecological networks to determine how climate-driven changes affect the ecosystem service of natural biocontrol. With an emphasis on how altered host-parasitoid interactions affect agricultural crop yields, the economic impacts of climate-driven changes will also be determined.
The successful candidate will join the interdisciplinary group of Drs. Darren Evans and Dave Lunt (Biological Sciences) and Dr. Jonathan Atkins (Hull University Business School, HUBS) as part of the University’s Centre for Adaptive Science and Sustainability (CASS). CASS is committed to working in close partnership with the business community to develop successful and sustainable economic growth.
