We are looking for a candidate with a PhD in a relevant subject and experience and a strong interest in evolutionary genomics. Experience of de novo assembly and comparative genomics is a merit. 3/5

It is sad that even basic research needs to be defended with utility. For me, basic research is in the same category as art: civilized societies can't do without it, because we all want to know who we are and what our place in the natural world is -- questions that only science can answer.

We have a great research environment in Ecology and Evolution at Stockholm University! This is a 4-year employment & living in Sweden = free healthcare. Childcare is very affordable (ca 190 USD per month for full-time daycare per child) & pretty much everyone speaks English in Sweden. Apply!
