Job Description
Missions
The project aims to study the main phases of human settlement in New Guinea. New Guinea represents one of the oldest human settlements outside of Africa and is home to some of the greatest linguistic and genetic diversity on the planet. Archaeological and genetic evidence suggests that the ancestors of the New Guineans reached Sahul (present-day New Guinea and Australia) at least 55,000 years ago. However, little is known about this early phase of settlement, particularly the routes taken.
Activity
Main tasks:
- Conduct demographic modeling analyses based on human genomic data.
- Write a manuscript based on the results of the analyses performed.
Secondary tasks:
- Facilitate scientific discussions within the team.
- Organize monthly videoconferences with international collaborators.
