The Hübner lab at the Galilee Research institute (MIGAL), Israel offers a post-doctorate position in plant ecology and evolution. The project involves the analysis of a species distribution and landscape genomics using advanced computational tools in order to study adaptation to future climate. We are looking for a highly motivated individual with experience in spatial ecology and firm knowledge in species distribution models to join this exciting and high-impact project!

Our Advanced Certificate Program in Climate Change and Planetary Health will provide students with training to characterize and assess impacts related to climate change and the anthropogenic effects on health and wellbeing through constructive strategizing for policy and positive change.

Gain insights into the organisational risks and opportunities posed by climate change, and learn to lead a transition to net-zero emissions, and rewire your business model for long-term value and resilience. As public concern over sustainability challenges and ESG integration intensifies and climate-related organizational risks escalate, the ability to build more resilient business models that thrive in a net-zero economy has fast become a strategic imperative. The Business and Climate Change: Towards Net Zero Emissions online short course from the Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership (CISL) provides a comprehensive understanding of how to mitigate the business risks of climate change and oversee a transition to net-zero emissions for long-term resilience and overall value. Over eight weeks online, you’ll explore real-world examples of successful low carbon initiatives and discover how to utilize innovation to build a resilient, profitable business model for the future, stimulating a ‘triple bottom line’ of people, profit, and the planet. On completion of this course, you’ll walk away with a practical action plan to transition to net-zero emissions and the ability to lead change within your organization and beyond.

Business and Climate Change will help you understand the science, economic impact, and policy implications of climate change. You’ll explore how companies in various industries are adapting to and preparing for climate change and learn how to identify and communicate emerging opportunities and risks.
