- Description
- The Siepielski Lab (https://asiepielski.wordpress.com/join-us/) invites applications for a Postdoctoral Associate in Evolutionary Ecology. This NSF funded project will address questions focused on understanding how adaptive evolution under climate warming affects species tradeoffs mediating coexistence, population regulation, and species diversity. Start date is flexible. Primary responsibilities: Developing and running field and lab experiments and observational studies in mesocosms, implementation and statistical analysis of experiments, authorship of peer-reviewed articles, communication of findings at professional meetings, and management of research projects. Ample opportunity exists to develop additional projects under the general themes of community ecology and population ecology using theory, experiments, or meta-analytical techniques. The post-doc will directly supervise a full-time technician that will assist with much of the field and lab work.
- Qualifications
- Candidates must have a Ph.D. in biology, ecology, evolutionary biology or a closely related field, experience and expertise with ecological and evolutionary models and statistical analyses, and excellent written and verbal communication skills. While expertise in quantitative genetics is ideal, it is not required – a strong background in mixed effects statistical models would be helpful, though. Similarly, an ideal candidate would have experience or interests in thermal biology and species coexistence.
