Postdoctoral Researcher in Arctic Marine Microbiology

4 days ago


Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark Past Global Changes Full time

The Department of Glaciology and Climate at GEUS invites applications for a postdoctoral research position in Arctic marine microbiology. We are seeking a highly motivated individual to join our interdisciplinary research group dedicated to the study of past climate and ecosystem changes in the marine Arctic.

You will work on understanding the impacts of past climate oscillations on microbial diversity and composition, as well as the influence of the living microbial community on the preservation potential of marine sedimentary ancient DNA. This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research using state-of-the-art techniques such as metagenomic shotgun/transcriptome sequencing.

To be successful in this role, you hold a PhD degree in Biology, Microbiology, Geosciences, Environmental Sciences or related disciplines and have documented experience in processing and analysing high-throughput sequencing data. Proficiency in English is required, and organization and communication skills are important.

The department values cross-disciplinary and cross-institution collaborations, as well as team-level outreach activities. As a postdoctoral researcher, you will have the opportunity to develop your skills and expertise while contributing to the advancement of scientific knowledge in the field.

Salary and terms of employment are in accordance with the relevant trade union agreement. The appointment area is the Ministry of Climate, Energy and Utilities and its institutions. The Ministry of Climate, Energy and Utilities considers diversity to be an asset and encourages anyone regardless of gender, age, religion or ethnicity to seek the position.
