The positions Up to three post-doctoral positions are available at the University of Helsinki, Finland working in the research groups of Prof. Craig Primmer and Dr. Tutku Aykanat (http://www.helsinki.fi/evolution-conservation-and-genomics ) as a part of several related research consortia funded by the Research Council of Finland, the Kone Foundation and the ERC, with a focus on using the well studied Teno Atlantic salmon system as a model for adaptive management to assess biological and societal effects of recent anthropogenic changes on the Atlantic salmon metapopulation, alongside a detailed genetic and ecological evaluation of Pink salmon invasion in the river basin and the greater region. Successful applicants will likely have a strong background in research related to at least one of the themes listed below, but the specific combination of expertise is flexible, with the overall composition of the team being most important. Effects of management and ecosystem-related changes on salmon life-history phenotype and genotypes Evolutionary genomic approaches for assessing the effects of recent fishing management changes and invasive Pink salmon abundance on life-history phenotypes and genotypes. Relevant consortium publications: Erkinaro et al. 2019; Czorlich et al. 2018, 2022 Assessing sex-specific natural selection effects at key life-history loci due to anthropogenic and environmental factors Use of long- term data on Teno salmon reproductive fitness to assess potential sex-specific effects of recent fishing management changes and invasive Pink salmon abundance selection on Atlantic salmon life-history traits Relevant consortium publications: Czorlich et al. 2018; Mobley et al. 2019, 2020, 2024 Pink salmon genetics: determining the genetic basis of successful invasion Use of long-term scale material to identify genomic regions and structural variation potentially associated with higher invasion success. Relevant consortium publications: Erkinaro et al. 2026 Instructions for applying Appointees to the positions shall hold a doctoral degree and have the ability to conduct independent scholarly work. Suitable applicants will likely have a strong background in at least some of the themes and approaches listed above, although the species/system with which they have experience is less important.
