The Dijkstra lab at Central Michigan University is recruiting PhD students
to start in Fall 2026. The positions are fully funded by our new NSF
award focusing on the behavioral and neurogenomic basis of aggression
biases and its role in speciation in African cichlid fish. If you're
passionate about behavioral neuroscience, animal behavior, stress biology,
or evolution, we welcome your inquiry.
Interested candidates should contact Dr. Peter Dijkstra
(
dij...@cmich.edu) with (i) a statement of interest detailing how
you might fit in the lab, (ii) CV, (iii) transcripts (unofficial is
sufficient), and iv) contact information of 3 references. Please compile
as a single pdf and include "PhD Student Application 2026" in the email
subject line. Review of applications will start by Oct. 20.
