The Center for Space and Habitability (CSH) at the University of Bern is recruiting for two fully funded, four-year PhD positions focused on understanding and detecting life in extreme and extraterrestrial environments. @PPawg @MicrobesAWG
PhD 1: Remote sensing of microorganisms in extreme environments
This project will investigate approaches for the remote detection and characterisation of microorganisms in extreme environments.
PhD 2: Combining remote and in-situ life detection techniques
This project will explore complementary remote-sensing and in-situ approaches for detecting potential signatures of life and organic material.
Both positions are based at the Center for Space and Habitability, University of Bern, Switzerland, and are scheduled to begin 1 February 2027.
