A flyer advertising an open PhD position titled "Evolutionary Ecology of Avian Energetics" at the Institute of Vertebrate Biology, Czech Academy of Sciences in Brno. It is funded by the Czech Science Foundation (GACR). The text outlines a project investigating avian energy metabolites using fieldwork, macroevolutionary analyses, metabolomics, and advanced statistics. It lists essential qualifications including an MSc degree, and offers a fully funded position with guaranteed income and student housing. Applications require a CV, a max 400-word motivation letter, and references, submitted via a provided link. Review begins March 16, 2026. The flyer features photos of field researchers, a bird being measured with a blood glucose meter, and a research team working together around a table.
