【博士后招聘,长期有效】
课题组长期招聘博士后。
说明:博士后需要在2年(逸仙博后3年)内完成一个研究项目,并为找教职或进一步深造做好准备,因此研究方向的选择和研究项目的设计至关重要。因此,我们需要充分沟通,尽早确定好promising且可行的研究项目。
课题组研究方向
APEC课题组(Animal Physiological Ecology and Conservation)的研究方向为动物生理生态学与生物多样性保护,近年来主要关注以气候变化为代表的环境变化对物种造成的生理后果,并据此提出保护对策。下图展示了APEC课题组目前的工作框架:正在开展的研究项目整合实验研究、机理模型和空间分析等方法,阐明图中一个或多个箭头代表的过程或机制。
