6. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
This is an exciting opportunity for a dedicated researcher to join the Forest Hydrology Research Group and discover the catchment scale factors that contribute to increased stream water colour in forested upland catchments. Water colouration in natural ecosystems is a poorly understood ecohydrologic process, and the aim of this project is to identify the dominant source (or sources) and processes of water colouration from a diversity of forest ecosystem types.
The research position will require extensive field work involving the establishment and operation of field instrumentation in natural Eucalyptus forests in southeast Australia, in addition to laboratory experiments and conceptual model development. As part of a collaborative team, you will have the chance to work closely with researchers in the field and our industry partner, Melbourne Water.
Application Deadline: 02 Jun 2024
7. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
As the Research Fellow, you will investigate the structure and function of bacterial and viral molecular machines that are important for pathogenesis using integrative approaches including cryo-EM, cryo-ET, CLEM and various biochemical and biophysical methods. Candidates with a strong background in structural biology (cryo-EM and/or X-ray crystallography)/computational biology/virology are encouraged to apply.
Application Deadline: 22 May 2024
8. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Research Fellow will join a dynamic project team focused on exploring the evolution and maintenance of resistance in natural populations, aiming to potentially reduce pesticide use and promote economic and biodiversity benefits. Led by ARC Laureate Prof. Wedell at the School of BioSciences, the project applies sexual selection theory to predict insecticide resistance evolution in flies, challenging assumptions about resistance costs and exploring pre-existing variants maintained by balancing selection.
