are available to study natural selection in structured populations.
The students will join a collaborative Research Center located at the
University of Munich, the University of Freiburg and the University
of Vienna. The specific (experimental and theoretical) projects are:

1) Selection on expression variation at the B4galnt2 gene in natural
populations of house mice (John Baines, Munich; baines@bio.lmu.de)

2) Selection and the evolution of resistance in structured host
populations (Susanne Foitzik and Pleuni Pennings, Munich;
foitzik@zi.biologie.uni-muenchen.de; pennings@lmu.de)

3) The signature of selection in structured populations (Joachim
Hermisson, Vienna, and Peter Pfaffelhuber, Freiburg;
joachim.hermisson@univie.ac.at; peter.pfaffelhuber@stochastik.uni-
freiburg.de)

4) Population genetic methods for inferring adaptation in populations
with complex demography (Dirk Metzler and Laura Rose, Munich;
metzler@cs.uni-frankfurt.de; rose@zi.biologie.uni-muenchen.de)

5) The evolutionary basis of alphaproteobacterial diversity (J?rg
Overmann, Munich; j.overmann@LRZ.uni-muenchen.de)

6) Gene expression variation in natural populations of Drosophila
(John Parsch, Munich; parsch@zi.biologie.uni-muenchen.de)

7) Selective sweeps in Drosophila melanogaster (Wolfgang Stephan,
Munich; stephan@bio.lmu.de)

PhD positions are available in projects 1, 2, 3, 6, and 7.

PhD students will receive a salary according to the German pay scale
(E13/2 TV-L). Applicants should have a master’s degree or equivalent
in biology or a related field. Interested candidates should send a
CV, statement of interest, and contact information of two potential
referees as a single PDF file to the principal investigators of the
individual projects (mentioned above) or to stephan@bio.lmu.de

Applications will be reviewed beginning September 1, 2008. The
