Funded PhD opportunity in the Invertebrate Neuroethology Laboratory
Department of Biological Sciences, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, MB, CANADA
Dr. Byron N Van Nest is seeking a talented PhD student to start in September 2025 (preferably) or January 2026 to study aspects of sensory physiology and learning in the context of pollination ecology. Using honey bees and other arthropods, our laboratory employs immunohistochemistry, microscopy, electrophysiology, and a wide variety of behavioural assays. We have active collaborations with the University of Manitoba Departments of Entomology and Electrical & Computer Engineering, East Tennessee State University, and the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich.
Completion of a research-based master’s degree is required prior to commencing the PhD.
