The Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Biology in Plön is an 
internationally oriented institution whose research focuses on the 
principles, mechanisms and effects of evolutionary change. Around 200 
employees from more than 30 nations currently work at our institute in 
the departments of Theoretical Biology and Microbial Population Biology, 
as well as in a number of independent research groups.

POSTDOC POSITION 1 - EVOLUTIONARY GENOMICS

The research group "Biological Clocks" at the Max Planck Institute for 
Evolutionary Biology is working at the intersection of evolutionary 
biology, ecology and biological time-keeping. We have a set of >1000 
genomes of the intertidal midge Clunio marinus (Diptera: Chironomidae). 
Recently, we have expanded our focus to the evolution, ecology and 
conservation of other species of the genus Clunio, as well as other 
chironomids.

In the context of these emerging new projects, we are looking for a:
*Postdoctoral Fellow (m/f/d) in Evolutionary Genomics, Comparative 
Genomics and/or Conservation Genomics*

POSTDOC POSITION 2 - MOLECULAR BIOLOGY & CELL SIGNALLING

(in an evolutionary context)

The research group "Biological Clocks" at the Max Planck Institute for 
Evolutionary Biology aims to uncover the molecular basis of circalunar 
clocks. We use the intertidal midge Clunio marinus (Diptera) as a model 
organism and apply methods ranging from molecular biology and 
evolutionary genomics to behavioral experiments and ecological field work.

We are looking for a
*Postdoctoral Fellow (m/f/d) to explore the role of cell signalling in 
the circalunar clock*
