Dear colleagues, Please read the list of the projects. At least a few of them are fully or partially dedicated to marine mammals. Best, Pavel Gol'din ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: David Orton <00001cd2bbbe0236-dmarc-request@jiscmail.ac.uk> Date: Wed, Feb 6, 2019, 12:54 Subject: [ZOOARCH] SeaChanges: funded PhDs To: <ZOOARCH@jiscmail.ac.uk> Dear all, Please see the following opportunity and pass it on to anyone who might be interested. Thanks, David * 15 fully-funded PhDs in marine historical ecology (zooarchaeology / palaeogenetics / marine zoology), starting autumn 2019: call for expressions of interest We are pleased to announce the launch of the SeaChanges Marie Skłodowska-Curie Innovative Training Network, offering 15 fully-funded PhDs spread across the Universities of York, Groningen, Copenhagen, Bologna, Oslo, and Cambridge, and the Marine Research Institute of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC). SeaChanges bridges archaeology and marine zoology in order to improve understanding of the time depth of human exploitation and impact on marine species, and to train a cohort of researchers with the necessary skills to operate across disciplinary and sectoral boundaries to this end. This is achieved via a network of complementary research projects that apply diverse methods to address both socio-economic and ecological themes, covering all of Europe's seas, key marine species, and timescales from decades to millennia. The PhD projects are supported by a programme of dedicated training workshops in bioarchaeology, marine ecology, data management, and communication with stakeholders and the public. Each PhD studentship is a 3-year position with a highly competitive salary and dedicated research/training budget, open to applicants of any nationality (subject to rules regarding trans-national mobility). Full eligibility criteria and a list of projects are available on the SeaChanges website <https://sites.google.com/york.ac.uk/seachanges>. The formal application process is due to open in March 2019, with successful applicants taking up their positions from October 2019. In the meantime, we invite expressions of interest from potential candidates. If you are interested, please review the project descriptions and eligibility criteria and complete the form here <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdJVnAWfJVSf7JBgZSevYkMu8dKYT0JkbDVuWVT01QofyLEag/viewform?usp=sf_link> ideally by March 8th 2019, or email seachanges@palaeome.org <seachanges@palaeome.org> for more information.
