Postdoctoral research position specialised in calcareous nannofossils

The postdoctoral researcher will focus on calcareous nannofossils, primarily from the early Mesozoic (Triassic and Jurassic). Responsibilities include examining both traditional calcite-preserved nannofossils and imprint or ghost fossils of nannoplankton preserved on organic matter. There is flexibility to explore material from other time intervals, such as the Cretaceous and Cenozoic, based on research interests. The role involves conducting fieldwork for sample collection, followed by laboratory processing to prepare calcareous nannofossils for analysis. The postdoctoral researcher will collect abundance and diversity data using transmitted light and scanning electron microscopy, contributing to a deeper understanding of these microscopic fossils. Additionally, they will analyze findings, publish research in peer-reviewed journals, and present results at scientific conferences.
