We have several new postdoc positions available at the Center for Biodiversity and Global Change at Yale!
As part of a new cohort hire, postdoctoral positions are available in association with the Yale Center for Biodiversity and Global Change (BGC Center; https://bgc.yale.edu), the Max Planck-Yale Center for Biodiversity Movement and Global Change, and Map of Life. These are 2-3-year positions, some with the potential for longer-term (non-ladder faculty) employment.

Diversity, equity, and inclusion are core values of the Center, and we are committed to ensuring our workplace reflects those values. As such, we strongly encourage applications from researchers identifying as a member of a historically marginalized group.
The Yale BGC Center connects biodiversity scientists from across campus and supports research and training around the use of new technologies and data flows for model-based inference and prediction of biodiversity change. One BGC Center associated flagship is Map of Life which undertakes a activities supporting the GEO BON Species Population Essential Biodiversity Variables, biodiversity change indicators, and the Half-Earth Map. Other initiatives associated with the Center include the integration of spatial, phylogenetic, and functional dimensions of biodiversity (e.g., VertLife, ButterflyNet), remote sensing-informed layers and tools for biodiversity modelling (EarthEnv), biodiversity movement analysis (through the Max-Planck Yale Center), and the Wildlife Insights initiative for camera trapping.
Yale University offers researchers and staff competitive salaries and a generous package of benefits. Yale has a thriving and growing community of young scholars in ecology, evolution, and global change science in the EEB Department, the Yale Institute for Biospheric Studies, the Peabody Museum, and the Yale School of the Environment. New Haven is renowned for its classic Ivy League setting, 75 miles northeast of New York City.
