Dear colleagues, Happy new year 2026! We are about to open a postdoc position in Institut Pasteur and would be thankful if you could pass the message to interested candidates. The position will be joint between the Evolutionary Dynamics of Infectious Diseases team (Duchene), the Modelling of Pathogens team (Zhukova) and the National Reference Center for Respiratory Viruses (Lemoine bioinformatics group). The postdoc will work on "pandemic-scale phylogeography and phylodynamics" as part of the SPREAD project in collaboration with the Goldman group at EMBL-EBI, and the McHardy group at the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research. The contract is to start in spring 2026 for 18-20 months. We are looking for somebody with statistical and computational skills who recently obtained their PhD and has experience and interest in phylogenetics, phylodynamics and/or phylogeography. A more detailed description is available on request. Thank you very much! Best wishes, Sebastian, Fr�d�ric and Anna (sebastian.duchene-garzon|frederic.lemoine|anna.zhukova @ pasteur.fr) [Posted on their behalf by Nick Goldman, EMBL-EBI] Anna Zhukova Group Leader Modelling of Pathogens: Evolution, Adaptation and Spread (MPath) Institut Pasteur Department of Computational Biology 25-28 rue du Docteur Roux, 75015 Paris anna.zhukova@pasteur.fr 01.45.68.87.78 & Institut de Biologie de l'ENS (IBENS) Ecole Normale Sup�rieure - Universit� PSL - CNRS - INSERM 46 rue d'Ulm, 75005 Paris office 060 anna.zhukova@ens.psl.eu Nick Goldman (to subscribe/unsubscribe the EvolDir send mail to golding@mcmaster.ca)
