Doctoral Researcher, How plant-microbial interactions shape species diversity

PROJECT DESCRIPTION The architectures and dynamics of ecological interaction networks are crucial determinants of the assembly of ecological communities. The environmental context can reshape ecological communities by modifying the presence and outcomes of biotic interactions, ultimately influencing species traits, abundance and distributions. This PhD project will use the highly diverse and dynamic plant-microbial networks in the arctic environment as study system to investigate of why and how complex plant-microbial biotic interaction networks change along abiotic gradients, and what the ultimate consequences of such changes are on microbial and plant community assembly. For reaching the objectives, the PhD will combine field and greenhouse experiments, perform DNA and RNA molecular analyses, and apply joint species distribution models to analyze the data. By providing a mechanistic understanding of species interactions in plant-microbial networks, this project will enable improved predictions on how biodiversity will respond to the ongoing global change. DUTIES The doctoral researcher position will involve conducting fieldwork in Finnish Lapland, conducting greenhouse experiments, contributing to laboratory sample preparation, and contributing to bioinformatic and statistical analyses. Apply between 28 January 2026and28 February 2026 23:59(Europe/Helsinki) Who we are looking for We are seeking a highly motivated, innovative, and productive individual who is willing to gain hands-on experience in both field and greenhouse experiments, is highly motivated to develop data analysis skills, and is willing to contribute intellectually to the project’s development. Suitable candidates should hold a Master’s degree by the start of the position in ecology and evolution, microbial ecology, plant ecology, or a closely related field within the broader umbrella of community ecology, and demonstrate an interest in plant–microbial research and data analysis.
