Campagne de recrutement de Post-Doc 2018-2019- Institute For Advanced Study In Toulouse (IAST)

IAST Research Fellowships in Evolutionary Biology,

The Institute for Advanced Study in Toulouse (IAST; www.iast.fr) invites applications for post-doctoral research fellowships in Evolutionary Biology, with a start date of September 1, 2018.

We welcome applications from researchers with research interests in any of the following areas: theoretical models of evolution (applied to family structure, strategic interactions, plasticity, cognition, learning, cultural evolution); related empirical work.

We seek candidates with a strong research background in their own discipline, but willing and able to develop research projects drawing on IAST’s substantial interdisciplinary resources, including particularly the proximity of strong groups in economics (Toulouse School of Economics, TSE). We are open to a variety of research methods, including theory, field and laboratory experiments, observational field work, and the analysis of large secondary data sets. All research interests relevant to the broad study of human behavior are welcome, but interests close to those already developed at IAST will be given special consideration.

Eligible applicants
Active researchers who have or will have completed their PhD after January 2015 and before September 2018. The IAST offers its researchers an opportunity to devote themselves full time to their research at the start of their careers. Motivated applications will be considered from candidates whose PhDs were completed in 2014 or earlier; please explain your reasons in your cover letter.

Conditions
Fellows are provided with office space, computer facilities and a contract for two years, renewable for a third year.

All applications need to be sent through our website: http://www.iast.fr/apply before December 31, 2017
