PhD Position in Fish Stress Evolution and Trancriptomics
TheLeibniz Institute of Marine Sciences (IFM-GEOMAR) at the Universityof
Kiel is one of the leadinginstitutes in marine research in Germany. Its
major goal isfundamental research in all areas of marine sciences. For
more informationplease visit www.ifm-geomar.de. The Leibniz Institute

ofstressors such as crowding, food types and temperature on fish behavior
andwelfare, and its interaction with population origin. Another focus will
be thegenetic effects of domestication on transcription patterns. Through
the clusterof excellence ‘The Future Ocean’ access to high throughput
genomic facilitiesis provided.
*Qualification*
Werequest a Msc or Diploma degree in (Marine) Biology, Evolution,
