Dear colleagues, I would like to draw your attention to an exceptional career opportunity offered at the University of Göttingen in Germany. We are currently looking for candidates that have the potential to successfully apply for an ERC grant or the Emmy Noether program. If successful, the applicant will subsequently receive a permanent, 100% research position at a higher-than-usual paygrade. This is an ideal opportunity for highly talented and productive early-career scientists who want to continue research without the additional responsibilities and teaching load of a professor. The research topic for the proposal must relate to Forest Sciences in a broad sense, which also includes the evolution of forest species (both plants and animals), or even wildlife ecology, management, or genetics/genomics, provided that some link to, or relevance for, forestry or forest ecosystems can be demonstrated. Please see https://www.uni-goettingen.de/de/644546.html?details=76508 for more details and note the application deadline of August 15th. For any general questions related to this position, please contact my colleague Prof. Dr. Alexander Knohl (email: bioklima-job@uni-goettingen.de) with subject “Forst-Talent Fellowships”. If your proposal ideas for this position relate to wildlife, and you would like feedback on these ideas, feel free to contact me. Kind regards Niko ---------------------------------------------------------- Niko Balkenhol, Ph.D. Professor of Wildlife Management Dept. of Wildlife Sciences Faculty of Forest Sciences and Forest Ecology University of Goettingen nbalken@gwdg.de (to subscribe/unsubscribe the EvolDir send mail to evoldir@evoldir.net)
