Job Advertisement, Department of Integrative Biology, University of Guelph
Research Assistant, posted March 20 2012
The Caruso Lab is seeking a full time Research Assistant in Plant
Evolutionary Ecology.
The successful candidate will oversee field and greenhouse
experiments designed to examine sex ratio evolution in wild plant
populations, take part in other lab research projects in evolutionary
ecology, and participate in day-to-day lab management.
He/she must have (1) the ability to work independently and (2) some
background in ecology and/or evolutionary biology. Experience working
with plants is desirable, but not essential.
The position is suitable for those who have recently completed an
undergraduate degree in biology and are seeking additional research
experience prior to entering graduate or professional programs. There
will be opportunities to develop an independent project related to
current research in my lab.
I am currently accepting applications, and will do so until the
position is filled. The position will start in early August 2012. The
initial appointment is for one year, but may be extended if funding
is available. Salary will be commensurate with experience, and will
include benefits.
To apply, please submit a letter of interest, CV, and the contact
information for three references to Christina (Chris) Caruso
