Project Description
The selected candidate will be part of the Vienna Doctoral School of Ecology and Evolution, which includes 12 research groups (https://vds-ecology-evolution.univie.ac.at/) and is expected to conduct a research project within the international research unit “Solnhofen Plattenkalk Biota” on the eco-evolutionary dynamics of Late Jurassic bony fishes (Osteichthyes, Actinopterygii) that ultimately shall lead to a doctoral degree typically in form of a thesis based on publications. The research unit consists of nine research teams who seek to improve our understanding of biotic dynamics in a low latitude, shallow marine biodiversity hotspot over a geologically short time span in deep time, using the ancient Solnhofen Archipelago as a case study.
