Faculty of Science MU, a holder of the HR Excellence in Research Award by the European Commission, is a research-oriented faculty, offering university education (Bachelor’s, Master’s, and Doctoral degree programs) closely linked to both primary and applied research and high school teaching of the following sciences: Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and Earth sciences. We are the most productive scientific unit of the Masaryk University generating around 40 % of MU research results. Department of Anthropology MU is a research- and education-oriented unit focused on the biological, social, and cultural dimensions of humankind. It hosts Bachelor’s, Master’s, and Ph.D. programs and brings together over 120 undergraduate and graduate students within an active research environment. Research integrates biological and behavioral approaches, with strong expertise in biological anthropology, bioarchaeology, and forensic anthropology. The department provides access to well-equipped research facilities, including an isotope laboratory with dedicated sample preparation, ultra-microbalance, and clean-lab rooms; an osteology laboratory with extensive teaching and comparative collections; and a forensic laboratory equipped with advanced 3D human morphology acquisition systems and biological data processing platforms.

The Department comprises 20 faculty members and researchers actively engaged in research, teaching, and international scientific collaboration, providing a dynamic environment for postdoctoral development. The BITE Brno project, funded by the Czech Science Foundation, investigates the biological and biosocial dimensions of urbanization in Brno between the 9th and 19th centuries through an integrated bioarchaeological framework. It combines demographic, health, and landscape perspectives to explore how urbanization shaped population structure and lived experiences over the longue durée. By focusing on a single urban setting and treating multiple burial grounds as components of a coherent population, the project enables the analysis of large-scale patterns (ca. 1,000 individuals) using complementary state-of-the-art analytical approaches within a collaborative research framework. The position specifically focuses on reconstructing demographic structures and mobility patterns to better understand biological responses to urbanization. The BITE Brno project invites applications from qualified candidates to support and advance the project’s research objectives. Job Description: Key Duties: Lead and coordinate the paleodemographic analysis of a large archaeological human skeletal assemblage. Perform sex and age-at-death estimation (adults and non-adults) using established osteological methods. Apply and/or contribute to the development of complementary approaches (e.g. cementochronology, proteomic sex estimation). Work efficiently on a large dataset while ensuring analytical consistency and data quality. Participate in the integration of demographic data with other project datasets (e.g. isotopic, paleopathological, and archaeological data). Contribute to statistical analyses and interpretation of population structure in relation to urbanization. Ensure high standards of data recording, consistency, and quality control across the assemblage. Prepare and co-author scientific publications and project outputs within project timelines. Collaborate with project partners and contribute to student supervision when relevant. Skills and Qualifications: Required selection criteria: PhD in anthropology, bioarchaeology, biological anthropology, palaeobiology, or a related field.
