Trinity is Ireland’s leading university and is ranked 87th in the world (QS World University Rankings 2024). Founded in 1592, the University is steeped in history with a reputation for excellence in education, research, and innovation, which has been inspiring generations of thinkers for over 400 years. The School of Natural Sciences is seeking to appoint an Assistant Professor with an excellent research record in the broad areas of biogeography/phylogeography and the spatial assessment of biodiversity. This Assistant Professor role will provide for research and teaching expertise in the spatial assessment of biodiversity, GIS, Earth observation, and biogeography to our School and will develop an independent research programme at the interface of all the constituent disciplines within the School of Natural Sciences (that is, Botany, Geography, Geology and Zoology). As a fundamental aspect of E3 teaching and research, we aim to build on a track record of excellence in this field. There is a strong spatial component to fundamental questions in ecology and evolution (e.g. developing conservation priorities for biodiversity from local through to global scales) and in environmental decision-making in general. Candidates with successful research achievements and potential in any or all of biogeography (the study of the spatial distribution of organisms), phylogeography (the study of the processes of diversification in time and space and in how biodiversity is generated and maintained), Earth observation, and the spatial assessment of biodiversity are invited to apply.
