Dear all,
On behalf of the research school in biosystematics – ForBio – I am sending a reminder about the course ”Biosystematics methods and biodiversity” that will be held July 30 – August 4, 2012 at Skibotn field station, Troms, Norway .
Expertise in collecting natural history specimens, gathering data associated with them, their identification based on morphological characters, and preservation for natural history collections is rapidly disappearing in many countries. This course aims to provide field experience for PhD students and post-docs in biosystematics who want to gain increased knowledge of specimen and data collection, specimen identification, and preservation for taxonomic research.
The registration deadline is June 15, 2012, but please see important registration information at http://www.forbio.uio.no/events/courses/2012/bio8001.html or contact Sergei Drovetski directly at sdr00@uit.no
The course is arranged by the Research School in Biosystematics – ForBio. There is no course fee, and PhD students/postdocs registered at Swedish or Norwegian universities can become ForBio members and will then have their travel and accommodation costs covered. For information about ForBio and its membership, please see http://www.forbio.uio.no/
This course will cover birds, vascular plants, and bryophytes.
Hope to see you at Skibotn, Sergei Drovetski.

Dear All,
We are happy host Dr. Nicolas Lartillot (University of Montreal, Canada) for a one day workshop on Bayesian phylogenetics here at the Museum of Natural History (Stockholm).
Nicolas will lead a morning software session (PhyloBayes software) and give a talk (”Bayesian Integrative Models for Macroevolutionary Studies”) in the afternoon.
Date: Tuesday June 5.
Venue: Natural History Museum, Stockholm.
Time: 9am – 12pm (software session), 3:00pm – 4:30pm (seminar)
More information can be found on www.phylogenomics.se.

Arbetsuppgifter: Inskrivning och kvalitetssäkring av vetenskapliga namn, auktorer och svensk förekomst i ArtDatabankens namndatabas Dyntaxa. Uppletande och inskrivning av referenser till bestämningsnycklar.
Kvalifikationer: Grundläggande artkunskaper, god datorvana, god förmåga att korrekturläsa och stor noggrannhet är krav. Biologexamen, goda taxonomiska, faunistiska och/eller floristiska kunskaper om Sveriges arter, kunskaper om den zoologiska och/eller botaniska nomenklaturkoden, god svensk och engelsk språkförmåga samt intresse för listor och katalogisering är meriterande.
ArtDatabanken är en nationell kunskapsbank för information om biologisk mångfald. Ett av våra centrala uppdrag är att sammanställa kunskap om Sveriges djur och växter samt genomföra analyser av populationsstatus och miljötillstånd för den biologiska mångfalden i Sverige. Vi är organiserade i sex s.k. program där Program taxonomi ansvarar för genomförandet av de vetenskapliga delarna av det Svenska artprojektet. En viktig del av detta arbete är uppbyggnad och kvalitetssäkring av namndatabasen Dyntaxa (www.dyntaxa.se), vilken ska innehålla alla arter som påträffats i Sverige.
Anställningsform: Tidsbegränsad anställning, 6 månader med eventuell möjlighet till förlängning
Omfattning: Heltid
Tillträde: 2012-09-01 eller snarast därefter
Välkommen med din ansökan märkt med Ref nr: SLU ua 1732/2012.
Ansökan ska ha inkommit till Registrator, SLU, Box 7070,750 07 Uppsala eller registrator@slu.se senast den 18 juni 2012. Urval och kallelse till intervju kommer att ske under andra halvan av augusti.
SLU eftersträvar mångfald och jämn könsfördelning.

The course aims to present illustration techniques for identification keys and species descriptions. It will include lectures and practical sessions on drawing (different techniques) and photo handling.
Target group: PhD students with a general background in biology. Curators, museums.
Working language: English/Scandinavian
Recommended course credits: 2.5 ECTS
Fee: No course fee. For members of STIRS (Swedish Taxonomy Initiative’s Research School) or ForBio (Research School in Biosystematics: http://www.forbio.uio.no/) there are no accommodation costs and travel costs get refunded. Other participants pay for travel to/from Kristineberg, catering, and accommodation.
Registrations, which should be accompanied by a short CV (indicating the nature and stage of your research project) can be sent till August 10. Priority will be given to those PhD-students enrolled in the STIRS and members of ForBio if the maximum number of course participants is exceeded by the number of registrations.

A PhD-student position is available in fungal systematics, at the Department of Organismal Biology, Uppsala University.
The overall objective of the PhD project is to improve the understanding of speciation and intraspecific differentiation of ascomycete fungi. Using molecular sequence analysis, we will examine whether differentiation within and between closely related species correlate to spatial or ecological factors, estimate species´ niche amplitude and dissemination, and study how the morphological variation correlates with the genetic. The project includes work in the field, museum collections and molecular lab, as well as phylogenetic and population genetic sequence analyses and morphological microscopy studies.
