PHD POSITION

PhD Position on environmental RNA

The analysis of environmental DNA (eDNA) became a standard method to monitor fish species and abundances in freshwater streams and lakes. In marine systems however, the signal is usually blurred and translocated and thus non-informative to characterize local fish communities and their abundances.

Within the project eRNAmaris – environmental RNA in marine systems, we investigate if the analysis of environmental RNA can help to overcome these hurdles for non-invasive fish stock assessments in the ocean.

 

Start: January 2025

Duration: 4 years
