Postdoctoral Position: Plant Ecological Genetics
A post-doctoral position is available in the Galloway lab at the
University of Virginia to work on an NSF-funded project to evaluate the
contribution of maternal effects to population differentiation. The
study will focus on phenological traits in the herbaceous autotetraploid
Campanulastrum americanum. The project uses an ecological genetics
approach and will include greenhouse studies and field work across a
latitudinal gradient. In addition to collaborating on the project, the
post-doc will have the opportunity to independently develop related
research and to interact with the population biology and evolution
communities at the University of Virginia. Candidates should have a
background in ecological genetics and experience conducting field studies.
Start Date: as early as September
Duration: potential for 3 years
To apply: Send a CV, a statement of research interests and experience,
and the names and contact information for two references to
[email protected] . Review of applications will begin June 25.
Informal inquiries are welcome.
