Puffin “wreck” on French/Iberian coasts getting zero media coverage. A major disaster. Needs to be covered by the mainstream media. @markavery.bsky.social @theguardian.com @birdtrack.bsky.social @steelyseabirder.bsky.social @jbfarthing.bsky.social @rspbscotland.bsky.social @btoscotland.bsky.social

Restoring nature and reversing biodiversity loss are urgent societal challenges. Utrecht University invites applications for an Assistant Professor in Wildlife Ecology and Nature Restoration. In this role, you contribute to help solve these challenges through research and education by linking fundamental wildlife ecology to biodiversity recovery and nature restoration. As an Assistant Professor, you will join a young, enthusiastic team that is eager to make an impact. You will help strengthen the team’s mission to connect fundamental wildlife ecology with the challenges of nature restoration in human-dominated multifunctional forest landscapes, especially in north-western Europe. Your research will focus on restoration-relevant themes, such as wildlife responses to anthropogenic change, the effectiveness of conservation interventions, and the contribution of wildlife to biodiversity recovery and nature restoration. Close collaboration with colleagues within and beyond Utrecht University is an important part of this role, as well as building sustainable partnerships with conservation practitioners and policymakers. You will combine fieldwork, experiments and biomonitoring (e.g. using sensor technologies) with laboratory, statistical and theoretical approaches. There is ample opportunity to initiate research projects and to acquire funding. In education, you will teach in the Biology programs, develop and coordinate a new course, and supervise research projects of BSc, MSc and PhD students.
Are you a PhD-level #wildlife ecologist committed to research and education for #biodiversity and nature restoration?
Our group at @utrechtuniversity.bsky.social has a #vacancy for an assistant professor!
Deadline for applications is February 19.
Please spread the word.

We encourage excellent early career scientists (i.e., PhD candidate gaining doctoral degree before 9 September or scientist with max. 8 y full-time equivalent experience in research by 9 September), who are interested in applying for a MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowship in Ecology at the University of Tromsø (UiT) to send in their application (max. 3-page CV & 2-page project plan). Deadline for application of intramural selection of candidates is 16 February. Chosen candidates will be supported by UiT to write an application for MSCA postdoctoral fellowship (deadline 9 September 2026). If granted (21-39% success rate for intramurally supported applications since 2018), the project shall start 1 May 2027. For more information about the application process and to apply see https://euraxess.ec.europa.eu/jobs/403197.
Regarding scientific background of project, we are interested in estimating the impact of ocean warming on benthic communities. For this purpose, unheated settlement panels (= control) and panels heated 1, 2, and 3 °C above ambient seawater temperature have been put out at 10 m depth in a fjord near the island of Tromsø in September 2024 (more information at Heated settlement plates (HSPl) in global experimentation: Experiences, research questions, future applications and collaborations). All panels had been photographed after 1 y of field incubation in September 2025 and more sampling is planned in 2026, to take samples for species identification ("ground truthing" of photographed individuals in collaboration with David Barnes at BAS, UK) and gene expression studies. Furthermore, there are tank facilities at UiT to measure physiological responses of organisms from unheated and heated panels. We are interested to hear about your ideas and read your research plan within the scope of the heated panels experiment.
