Postdoctoral Fellowship in Mechanistic Niche Modeling and Climate Change Impacts
School of Life Sciences, Arizona State University A postdoctoral position is anticipated as part of a collaborative project to develop and evaluate mechanistic niche models that incorporate geographic variation in physiological traits of lizards. The post doc will be based in Michael Angillettas laboratory at Arizona State University, but will interact with members of Lauren Buckleys lab at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill and Tim Keitts lab at the University of Texas in Austin. The post doc will be expected to engage in modeling activities and coordinate lab studies of thermal physiology. Experience with mathematical modeling in C++, MATLAB, Python or R is beneficial and familiarity with environmental data and biophysical ecology is beneficial. The position will be awarded for one year with the possibility of renewal for additional years. To apply, please e-mail a single pdf file containing a cover letter, a curriculum vitae, a statement of research interests, representative publications, and a list of references to the following address: [email protected].
