Investigate how the insect virome impacts immune responses and fitness in lepidopteran species. This PhD project integrates virome sequencing, -omics, and gene editing to reveal fundamental mechanisms of insect immunity.

PhD position focused on forensic tracing of tropical timber to curb illegal trade. Roles involve analyzing timber forensic data with geostatistical tools or using radar remote sensing to detect logging activities.

PhD research to quantify global forest carbon sink changes using atmospheric observations, Earth Observation products, and numerical models. Integrate data into a prototype framework to expand capacity worldwide.

PhD research investigating how a caterpillar host's virome modulates baculovirus-induced behavioral manipulation. This involves analyzing phenotypes, molecular mechanisms in the CNS, and functional validation.

PhD position developing scientific tools to curb illegal timber trade using radar remote sensing to detect logging in tropical forests. Requires MSc in related field and strong analytical skills.

Lead a PhD study deciphering the neuronal code of taste in specialist caterpillars and butterflies to recognize host plants. Research involves electrophysiology, CRISPR/Cas9, and insect-plant coevolution.
