Ph.D. Studentship in Fish Ecology

We are looking for a motivated European candidate to apply for Spanish Ph.D. studentships to develop a Ph.D. thesis on the ecology of an invasive fish (Gambusia holbrooki), mainly life-history studies and ecological niche modelling (project flexible depending on candidate’s interests), under ongoing projects at the University of Girona, Spain. Seehttp://invasiber.org/EGarcia/ for further details and publications on the research.

Requirements:

• Recent (after year 2004 or later) Bachelor’s degree on Biology, Environmental Science or related topics. (M.Sc. are also eligible but a recent B.Sc. is necessary)
• Good academic record
• English fluency
• European citizenship or residency (Non-European candidates without a current, legal residency in a EU country are in principle NOT eligible according to the regulations of most Spanish studentships.)

Possibility of immediate incorporation through ongoing funded projects.

Interested people send CV (and B.Sc. transcript, if available) to Emili García-Berthou (emili.garcia@udg.edu)
