After 12 months

Applications are invited to obtain a temporary post for post -PhD research at level 1 at the UCD Biology and Environmental Science College.

Post -PhD researcher at the evolutionary genome of the adaptation of heat stress.

Thermal stress is a major driver of the bloc of the phenomenon of human global warming. However, its role in the evolutionary rescue is still largely uncomfortable. This project will search whether early thermal stress urges a permanent genetic change across three distinctive water bodies: HEDISTE Diversicolor, Heterixalus Alboguttus, and Danio Rerio. We aim to determine whether exposure to heat stress affects mutation rates by stimulating non -encoded genetic elements, thus accelerating evolutionary processes.

We will use the complete genome sequence and text science under heat stress early for H This comparative approach will allow us to contradict the short -term stress responses with a long -term evolutionary adaptation across the relevant and relevant species.

The project will primarily include a vital analysis of the biology of genetic data groups on a large scale, with opportunities for experimental work -based laboratories for interested researchers.

Close date: 12:00 noon (local Irish timing) 10/15/2025.

Applications must be submitted by the closing date and time. Any applications that are still under progress will be canceled at the time of closing from 12:00 pm (local Irish timing) on ​​the automatic closing date by the system. UCD is unable to accept late requests.

UCD does not require help from employment agencies. Any CV of the Employment Agencies will be returned.

PD1 aims for researchers in the early stage, either after completing a doctorate or for a person who enters a new area for the first time. If you have already completed your PD1 phase in UCD or you will soon complete PD1, or you are externally, then his total experience after the doctorate, including the declared post, will exceed 4 years, you should not advance and you must refer to PD2 posts instead.

Before the application, you must get more information (including application procedures) from work on UCD.
