Offer Description
One Ph.D. candidate position is now available to work on mechanisms and evolution of post-copulatory mate choice in humans, in a new research group in the Institute of Human Biology and Evolution at Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań, Poland.
The position is part of a project funded by Polish National Science Centre: Condition-dependent mechanisms of gamete-level mate choice (postmating sexual selection) in humans. The project will test the role of immunocompetence of a male in cryptic female choice on the gamete level, in order to shade a light on post copulatory sexual selection in humans. The main aim of the project is to investigate how the male condition, measured as the ability to recognize pathogens, affects sperm performance in the post-mating context in humans
The Ph.D. candidate will use methods from experimental and evolutionary biology, molecular biology and computational genomics (phenotypic assays, wet-lab, MinION Nanopore sequencing).
You will join a recently started research group led by Aleksandra Łukasiewicz. The application should include professional CV including scientific achievements, cover letter summarizing previous work experience and future interests, contact information for one or two professional references, and be addressed to dr Aleksandra Łukasiewicz, [email protected]
