Post-doc position in human behavioural ecology in Finland

Overview: Our multidisciplinary research team is looking for a post-doctoral researcher for a three-year project investigating life history, social integration and the influence of kin in forced migrants in a 20th century Finnish population. The project is an exciting opportunity to investigate the consequences of forced migration of over 400000 people during World War II from an evolutionary ecology and sociology viewpoint. These migrants encountered much the same traumas and faced similar prejudices and resentment that current migrants face today, making the study of this population particularly appropriate to gain insight into the present and future of current migrants.The project, headed by Dr. John Loehr, is funded by Kone Foundation for the period 2017-2020. http://www.koneensaatio.fi/en/hanke/learning-from-our-past/ Read more
