The Natural History Museum Denmark seeks a Tenure Track Assistant Professor and Curator of Lepidoptera. Candidates should have a strong research background in Lepidoptera. Applications due March 22, 2026. Info: https://snm.dk/en/about-museum. #job
About the museum
Natural History Museum Denmark is beautifully located in the corner of the Botanical Garden near Nørreport Station. Until October 2022 the museum also welcomed guests at the Zoological Museum at Østerbro, which is now closed to the public in order to prepare for the new museum building that will open in the Botanical Garden in a few years time.
