I am looking for 1-2 highly motivated PhD graduate students interested in restoration ecology, invasive species, plant-fungus-insect interactions, or other aspects of plant ecology to start August 2009 in the Biology Department at the University of Louisville. My current work focuses on plant-fungus interactions and the restoration of Great Lakes sand dunes. Other related interests include the role of dominant species in plant communities and the management and population dynamics of exotic invasive species. I am working on several projects which students could collaborate on, though I encourage students to develop their own research. For further information please visit my website: http://louisville.edu/~smemer03/
Departmental Applications may be submitted at any time but preferably before January 31, 2009 to ensure consideration for financial support. See the departmental website for additional application information: http://louisville.edu/a-s/biology/graduate.html. A number of graduate fellowships and teaching assistantships are available for competitive students. TA Stipends are currently $22,000/yr. Interested applicants should send an email with a letter of interest and attached CV to me at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
