In cooperation with the Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research (UFZ), Department of Ecological Modelling, in Leipzig, a position is available on a temporary basis within a project on research on native biting midges, funded by the German Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture (BMEL). The focus of the project "Biting midge (Ceratopogonidae)-borne viruses as important factors influencing livestock husbandry in Germany - monitoring, bionomics, genetics and infection (CeratoVirPlus)" is on the distribution of biting midges species and their binding to habitat and landscape structures. The project is carried out in close cooperation with the Friedrich-Loeffler-Institute, Federal Research Institute for Animal Health, Greifswald - Insel Riems.
Subject to the release of funds, we are looking for a 65% (TV-L up to EG13) position with immediate effect for 3 years at the Leipzig location for a
Doctoral researcher (f/m/d)
The research project deals with biting midges as vectors of pathogens in the framework of the present bluetongue outbreak in Germany. In connection with a multi-year collection of biting midge distribution data from all over Germany, it is planned to quantify habitat use and landscape connectivity of different biting midge species. The dataset available for use documents biting midge occurrence over more than six years and thus offers a special opportunity to contribute scientifically to the topic through modelling.
