Job Description
In this post-doc project, you will unravel the function of butterfly taste receptor neurons by determining to which plant compounds they respond and what role they play during the coevolution of butterflies and their host plants, using a novel molecular approach.
Your job
Are you a highly motivated and curious Post-doc with a strong interest in the evolution of sensory systems and how these sensory adaptations influence the coevolution of animals and plants? Do you want to explore how butterflies recognize and adapt to their host plants, and to contribute to cutting-edge research at the intersection of evolutionary biology and sensory ecology? Then we at Wageningen University & Research have an exciting opportunity for you.
