Explore and teach at the University of Vienna, where over 7,500 brilliant minds have found a unique balance of freedom and support. Join us if you’re passionate about groundbreaking international research and academic excellence. Ready to be part of our team? Let’s shape the future together!

Your personal sphere of play:

The Wanninger Lab is hiring a Postdoc in Invertebrate EvoDevo. We are a dynamic, international group situated in the recently built University of Vienna Biology Building (UBB) with new labs to perform top-notch molecular and morphological research. Additional infrastructure includes animal care facilities to maintain and rear aquatic and terrestrial animals as well as access to sequencing facilities, high-end computer clusters, and an imaging and electron microscopy core facility. Research in our group covers various invertebrate animals. The successful candidate is expected to work on mollusks, a core target taxon of our lab for which a wide range of molecular resources and established lab protocols are available. Previous experience with these animals is not required, but candidates should have a strong interest in working with little-investigated, aquatic, non-model invertebrate animals. The exact research agenda of the candidate will be developed together with the PI; the position is flexible to account for specific interests of the candidate. We seek an enthusiastic lab member who is capable of working rather independently, yet will integrate and interact with other group members. The position is available from July 14th, 2025 onwards. The start date is somewhat flexible and can be negotiated with the PI. The position is fully funded for six years.

Your future tasks:

The successful candidate will work in the group of the PI, Prof. Andreas Wanninger. Within the overall framework and research foci of the Wanninger lab, the PostDoc may work rather independently. Projects will be developed jointly with the PI; significant input from the candidate is highly desired. The job includes active participation in research, teaching, and administration. This involves:


	Developing research projects together with the PI
	Perform independent research in conjunction with the PI
	Draft/write scientific papers
	Publish in established international, peer-reviewed scientific journals
	Presentation at international scientific conferences, meetings, and workshops
	Share own knowledge with other members of the Department
	Contribute to introducing new lab members and students to scientific methods
	Contribute to the teaching portfolio of the Department
	Independent teaching of courses as defined by the collective agreement
	Participation in evaluation measures and quality assurance


This is part of your personality:


	The successful applicant must hold a PhD in Biology or a related discipline.
	Postdoctoral research experience is an advantage but not mandatory.
	Applicants should have experience with designing research projects and with composing scientific manuscripts.
	The scientific profile and expertise should include molecular approaches to EvoDevo questions (e.g., qualitative and quantitative gene expression analysis, transcriptomics). Experience in bioinformatics applications is a plus.


What we offer:

Work-life balance: Our employees enjoy flexible working hours, remote/hybrid and/or part-time work (upon agreement).
Inspiring working atmosphere: You are a part of an international academic team in a healthy and fair working environment.
Good public transport connections: Your workplace in the center of beautiful Vienna is easily accessible by public transport.
Internal further training & Coaching: Opportunity to deepen your skills on an ongoing basis. There are over 600 courses to choose from – free of charge.
Fixed-term contract and fair salary: The basic salary of EUR 4,752,30 (14 times a year) for a period of 6 years increases if we can credit professional experience.
Equal opportunities for all: We welcome every additional/new personality to the team!

It is that easy to apply:


	Applications must include an updated CV
	A list of publications is required
	Please provide the contact details of three potential referees
	Please include a concise letter of motivation (no more than 3 A4 pages) outlining major research interests
