| The Marine Biodiversity Lab at the University of Galway (Ireland) is currently offering two fully funded research positions: - PhD – Ecology and Evolution of Seaweeds Using a Multi-Omic Approach: A four-year PhD investigating the links between seaweed biodiversity, evolution and chemical ecology, combining molecular systematics, phylogenomics and LC–MS metabolomics to understand how chemical traits vary across species, populations and environments.
- MSc – Metabolomic Diversity in Kelp: A one-year funded MSc using LC–MS metabolomics to investigate chemical diversity in kelp among species, populations, tissues and environmental conditions.
Both positions are based at the University of Galway and offer an opportunity to develop interdisciplinary skills in marine biodiversity, molecular biology, metabolomics and chemical ecology.

We run a comprehensive course intertwined with a full year project. Students gain practical skills to qualify for aquatic (marine or freshwater) and terrestrial zoological or entomological positions across government, academic and consulting sectors. Apply here to secure your spot for 2027! | Rhodes University | 12/15/2026 | | The 2026 NF POGO Open Call invites early career scientists, technicians and postgraduate or postdoctoral researchers from developing countries to apply for shipboard training fellowships. Applicants may indicate research interests and travel availability, and selections are made as cruise opportunities arise. No closing date.
| NF-POGO | 12/31/2026 | | The Humboldt Research Fellowship supports outstanding postdoctoral and experienced researchers from all disciplines worldwide to conduct independent research stays in Germany. Fellowships last 6–24 months and offer generous financial support, flexible start dates and extensive academic networking opportunities, with a strong commitment to diversity and international collaboration. Calls open on the 15th in March, July and November. Calls close once 800 applications are submitted, so applicants should submit early when open.
