Interfaculty Bioinformatics Unit (IBU)
Start of employment: 01.07.2025 or by agreement

The project focuses on using long-read sequencing data for population and conservation genomics, particularly in endangered species like Zingel asper. The position offers collaboration with leading researchers and access to cutting-edge genomic resources.Tasks

• Develop and implement reproducible pipelines for population genomic analyses
• Analyze whole-genome resequencing data of Zingel asper
• Contribute to conservation and comparative genomics research
• Collaborate with the Earth BioGenome Project and European Reference Genome Atlas
• Work closely with researchers at the Naturhistorisches Museum Bern and the Institute of Ecology and Evolution

Requirements

• Strong background in next-generation sequencing (NGS) analysis
• Experience in population genetics and/or evolutionary biology
• Motivation to work in interdisciplinary and collaborative research settings
• Proficiency in English (working language of the group)

We offer

• A PhD position in a dynamic and collaborative research environment
• Collaboration with leading national and international research consortia
• The opportunity to use long-read sequencing data to advance conservation genomics in non-model and endangered species, supporting evidence-based biodiversity management
