In the May 2019 Edition of National Geographic you can find six beautiful pages, illustrated with pictures and text of António Luís Campos about our work with subterranean biodiversity. This article features the HiddenRisk project funded by the Villum Foundation.

Postdoc of Subterranean Ecology

A postdoctoral position on Subterranean Ecology is available in the HiddenRisk project, funded by the Villum Foundation and based at the Natural History Museum of Denmark. The project aims at understanding the impact of human activities on subterranean biodiversity. The successful candidate will be required to undertake research in macroecological analysis in subterranean ecosystems, in a cross-disciplinary research project.
 
We seek candidates with a background in experimental and theoretical ecology, and with experience from statistical analysis of standard and "big data" (species distribution modelling, multivariate data analysis, etc.). Overall aim will be to provide information on subterranean species across different taxa and from habitats strategically selected to be representative of different climatic, geographical and impacted conditions. There will be room for developing own side projects within the overall theme of subterranean biology and a great sense of independent thinking and generation of own ideas is expected.

Postdoc of Subterranean Biology and Ecotoxicology

A postdoctoral position on Subterranean Biology and Ecotoxicology is available in the HiddenRisk project, funded by the Villum Foundation and based at the Natural History Museum of Denmark. The project aims at understanding the impact of human activities on subterranean biodiversity. The successful candidate will be required to undertake environmental risk assessment in subterranean ecosystems.
 
We seek candidates with a background in experimental and theoretical ecotoxicology, and with practical experience in the evaluation, assessment and statistical analysis of standard and "big data" originating from ecotoxicological experiments and monitoring efforts (concentration-response modeling, multivariate data analysis, etc.). Overall aim will be to define the hazards and quantify the risks environmentally relevant for subterranean ecosystems at a global scale, including climate change effects. There will be room for developing own side projects within the overall theme of subterranean biology and a great sense of independent thinking and generation of own ideas is expected.
