Projekterbjudanden
IBG arbetar på flera sätt för att stimulera studenter att själva skapa, utveckla och upprätthålla goda kontakter med arbetslivet. Ett led i det arbetet är att hjälpa dig som student att hitta lämpliga projekt för t.ex. forskningspraktik, examensarbete, doktorandutbildning, etc. På annonssidan nedan lägger vi in aktuella förslag från institutioner, företag och myndigheter. Vi lägger ibland även in erbjudanden om sommarjobb och andra kortare anställningar. Dessutom publiceras en del evenemang med mer allmänt karriärstöd av olika slag. Mängden annonser växer kontinuerligt i takt med att vårt kontaktnät vidgas. Undersidan "Mer om projekt" har dessutom fasta länkar till externa resurser som kan ge ytterligare möjligheter till projekt.

Degree projects on the evolution of phenotypic plasticity, epigenetics and ageing
Phenotypic plasticity and epigenetic inheritance are increasingly seen as major players in development and evolution. However, little is yet known about when these inheritance systems are adaptive. Here you are given the opportunity to test fundamental predictions about the adaptive evolution of inheritance systems using experimental evolution and phenotypic assays in a nematode model system. Moreover, the system is also excellent for investigating costs of lifespan extension, including genetic and epigenetic effects on lifespan.

Real-time experimental evolution studies of sexual dimorphism, EBC
In sexually reproducing species the two sexes have close to identical genomes (in certain species fully identical), yet males and females usually differ in morphology and life history. Are you interested in understanding, by performing real-time experimental evolution studies in the model nematode Caenorhabditis remanei, how a shared genome both constrains and facilitates the evolution of the sexes? Here are prospects for resolving some of these issues! Master theses as well as research trainings can be accommodated within the overall project outline.
