General information on opportunities for PhD students and post-docs

We currently have two PhD students openings in the Slotte lab, associated with two recently funded research projects:

• Full ad for position 1: Convergent evolution and loss of a classic floral polymorphism – genetic causes and genomic consequences – funded by the Swedish Research Council. Apply through the link from the full ad on the Stockholm University homepage.
• Full ad for position 2: Unlocking genetic variation for climate adaptation of crops – funded by Formas. Apply through the link from the full ad on the Stockholm University homepage.

Both positions were announced by Stockholm University on April 2, with an application deadline (through the Stockholm University system) on April 23, 2024. Apply through the link from the full ad on the Stockholm University homepage.

If you have questions about the positions or project that are not covered by the full ad texts linked above, please contact project leader Prof. Tanja Slotte directly.

In general, if you find our research topics interesting and would like to join the lab, perhaps by writing your own fellowship application, you are welcome to contact Prof. Tanja Slotte directly. For prospective postdocs, there is an opportunity to apply for a postdoctoral fellowship from the Wenner-Gren foundation (deadline in October), from the Lawski foundation (deadline in April), and from the Carl Tryggers foundation (deadline in May) every year. Other funding sources for postdocs include Marie-Curie fellowships. 

Undergraduate students and master students

If you are interested in evolutionary genomics and want to develop your skills in population genetic analyses, then we may have a project for you! Please contact Prof. Tanja Slotte if you find our research interesting and would like to discuss opportunities for a Master/degree project.
