The E-Co-Evo Theory Lab seeks a postdoctoral researcher in theoretical ecology and modelling, specifically population models and thermal niches. The researcher will be analyzing the differences in heat tolerance, specifically optimal body temperature and critical thermal maxima, between juveniles and adults. They will be expected to use models of population dynamics and trait evolution to test out various hypotheses as to why there is this difference. The researcher should be proficient in standard mathematical modelling of population dynamics and running simulations.
