M/F/NB/+ Postdoctoral Position in Isotope Geochemistry and Archaeology

EURAXESS hosting organisation · Multiple European countries

As part of the ANR CROC project (“Delving Deep into Dog-Human Interactions: Revealing Dogs' Adaptations to the Agropastoral Lifestyle through Paleogenomics, Functional Morphology, and Geochemistry”), led by Morgane Ollivier (University of Rennes 1), we are seeking a postdoctoral researcher to study the impact of the advent of agriculture in Europe on the diet of dogs through: • Isotopic analysis of amino acids (CSIA). • Analysis of zinc (Zn) isotope ratios in dental enamel. The research will draw on samples from prehistoric dogs and associated fauna recovered from archaeological sites in France and Romania. The results will be interpreted in conjunction with morphometric and paleogenetic data. The postdoctoral fellow will be responsible for: • Sample collection and preparation: tooth sampl
