Evolutionary ecology; Physiological & Behavioral Neurogenomics (this position)
PhD
The Cnidarian Evolutionary Ecology Lab at the University of Southern California is recruiting a prospective Ph.D. student with interests in the behavioral ecology and neurogenomics of early coral life-history stages for a Fall 2025 start. This position will contribute to the Physiological & Behavioral Neurogenomics research sphere of a newly funded Allen Discovery Center for Neurobiology in Changing Oceans (https://today.ucsd.edu/story/uc-san-diego-receives-10-million-for-center-on-neurobiology-in-changing-environments) which aims to bridge knowledge gaps about the neurobiology of marine animals in natural settings to enhance our predictive power and ability to intervene. This Center involves multiple investigators and institutions, providing ample networking and career development opportunities. There will also be latitude to develop additional projects within the broader themes of the Center based on the student’s interests. Skills or experiences that are specifically relevant to the funded research include: Experience in the rigors of conducting research at a field station Background or strong interest in neurobiology Background or strong interest in coral biology/ecology/evolution Background or strong interest in larval biology/ecology/physiology Ability to work and collaborate with fellow scientists Prospective candidates must apply to the Marine and Environmental Biology PhD program under the USC College of Letters, Arts, and Sciences. Three years of RA support is available in support of this position as part of the Allen Discovery Center grant in addition to the standard MEB support package. Please visit https://dornsife.usc.edu/meb/prospective-students/ for more details regarding the degree program, stipends, and application process. If you would like to receive preliminary feedback on your application materials and fit with this position description prior to submitting your full application to the MEB program, please email your CV and statement of purpose to Dr. Kenkel (ckenkel@usc.edu) by October 15.

Evolution and ecology of amphibians
PhD
The freshwater ecology research team at Lingnan University is recruiting a PhD student to work on projects on amphibian skin toxins. The successful candidates would be ideally interested in a mix of laboratory work and field work. Applicants must hold an MPhil/research-based MS degree in ecology, biochemistry, or molecular biology and have a demonstrated record of research achievement (via publications). Experience with molecular biology and/or analytical chemistry is strongly preferred. The student’s dissertation will investigate the source of tetrodotoxin (TTX) in the Hong Kong newts.This is a 3-year full-time PhD position, with an option to extend to 4 years. Compensation: A monthly stipend (~20k HKD) will be provided in addition to annual leave and medical benefits; the student is expected to pay tuition (~42k HKD), but local applicants can apply for a tuition waiver.
