"Population Biology Postdoctoral Research Fellow"

The University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL) School of Biological Sciences is seeking applications for a two-year postdoctoral position in the Population Biology Program of Excellence.

The goal of the Population Biology-POE Postdoctoral Fellowship is to stimulate synergistic interactions between faculty and postdoctoral scholars broadly interested in the area of Population Biology. POE postdoctoral fellows pursue a research program under the sponsorship of an Ecology, Evolution, and Behavior (EEB) faculty member in the School of Biological Sciences (https://biosci.unl.edu/research-areas), and are expected to enhance graduate education, serve as a model for graduate students in career development, and promote interactions among faculty at UNL. While in residence, the postdoctoral fellow is expected to lead a seminar, symposium, or outreach project that will appeal to Population Biologists across campus.

EEB faculty at UNL are highly integrative and collaborative, using a wide array of approaches and study systems to study a diverse set of biological questions, from the molecular determinants of adaptation and speciation to multimodal animal communication to the community ecology of extinct mammals to the ecology and evolution of infectious disease.

The expected salary will be $49,000 per year, with an expected starting date of September 1 or later in 2026.

Minimum Required Qualifications:

• Ph.D. or will complete Ph.D. before start date.
• Conduct cutting edge research related to faculty research areas in the Ecology, Evolution, and Behavior section in the School of Biological Sciences (https://biosci.unl.edu/research-areas).
