University of Otago, NZ 和 Allan Wilson Centre for Molecular Ecology and Evolution 合聘的 Professor Jonathan Waters，正在徵學生使用 ancitent- DNA 研究紐西蘭史前海岸動物，附獎學金。 對做生態演化的人而言，不用說，紐西蘭的演化歷史很吸引人！ Allan Wilson Centre (http://www.allanwilsoncentre.ac.nz/) 也是很好的研究中心， 除了發表不錯，其分子生物技術的發展也相當成熟。即使在當年那個國內外都沒有太多動 物學者使用 AFLP 的時代，他們家詳盡又明確的 protocol 早已經把理論和實驗都交代得 清清楚楚了呢！ 以下是招生簡章，有興趣的人快跟老師聯絡吧！ PhD position available Allan Wilson Centre for Molecular Ecology and Evolution University of Otago New Zealand. An audit of prehistoric New Zealand We seek an enthusiastic and dynamic young researcher to undertake ancient-DNA studiesof New Zealand's prehistoric coastal animals. The project will develop skills in ancient-DNA techniques, next- generation sequencing, archaeology and phylogeography. New Zealand has an exceptionally well-preserved archaeological record, and the University of Otago has outstanding facilities for ancient-DNA work. Background experience in molecular techniques is highly desirable, and interest in biogeography and/or archaeology would be beneficial. This PhD position is funded by the Allan Wilson Centre for Molecular Ecology and Evolution: http://www.allanwilsoncentre.ac.nz/. The student will be part of a team investigating anthropogenic extinction and recolonisation processes in coastal New Zealand (Marsden funding).
