Join us

Check at the bottom of this page for open positions. If you might be interested in joining the team, welcome — below is some general guidance on Masters, PhD, and postdoctoral opportunities. For who’s currently in the group and their research interests, see the Team page; get in touch with whoever’s work looks like the best fit (please read our advice on making an effective enquiry first).

Masters

The group participates in the following graduate programmes:

PhDs

Please contact a team member listed on the Team page if you have an idea for a PhD that fits with the group’s research aims (and please consider our advice about making an effective enquiry first). If you’re interested in a PhD in Ecology (or a related subject), UZH runs a strong ecology programme jointly with ETH — you can apply directly, and may then be invited to Zurich to meet professors and groups for a short interview, or you can apply directly to a professor. See the ecology PhD programme for more information, or, for PhDs in other areas of biology, the Life Sciences Zurich Graduate School.

Postdocs

We’re always happy to hear from motivated, enthusiastic postdoctoral researchers whose interests fit well with the group’s. Please contact a team member listed on the Team page (and, again, consider our advice about making an effective enquiry first).
