PhD students
If are you interested in understanding how species interactions and species traits (particularly those related to metabolism!) shape communities, Giulia is recruiting PhD students at Monash University (Melbourne, Australia). 
The specific PhD project can be defined according to interests of the candidate, within the broader research interests of the group. All projects in our lab will use phytoplankton as a model system and will require generating novel data through the execution of lab experiments. There will be opportunities to continue/develop collaborations in Australia and internationally.

If you are interested in discussing a PhD application, contact Giulia (giulia.ghedini [at] monash.edu) with a motivation letter (2 pages max) explaining your research interests and why you want to join the lab; and your CV (2 page max) including your university final grades, a list of publications if available, and contacts of two referees.

Postdoc positions
Currently we do not have funded postdoc positions but I am happy to discuss and support applications for postdoctoral fellowships (DECRA, HFSP, Marie Curie etc) if there is mutual interest. Feel free to get in touch to discuss your research interests and how they fit with the lab - please also attach a copy of your CV.

Honours students/undergraduates
If you would like to join the lab to develop a project and/or get some research experience, contact Giulia to discuss current opportunities. Please attach your transcript.
Lab Philosophy
