We are an emergent group looking to continue growing in human resources. Enquiries from scientists and students eager to work in microbial ecology and evolution, and related fields are welcomed. Commonly, applicants should possess some experience in microbiology, molecular biology, bioinformatics or computational biology/mathematical modelling. If interested, email daniel.aguirre@uam.es providing a succinct description of experience and expectations, and some informative subject line (otherwise the email will be classified as spam by the institution).
