An NSERC-funded MSc or PhD position is available in the Department of Biological Sciences at the University of Lethbridge (Alberta, Canada). The focus of the project is on the evolution of senescence (a.k.a. ‘aging’), with a particular focus on plants. The project will include a combination of lab and field work, primarily involving techniques from population biology and evolutionary ecology. Potential start dates are September 2015 or January 2016. To apply, please send your CV along with a cover letter indicating your research experience and interests to Dr. Robert Laird (robert.laird AT uleth.ca). Applications will be accepted until the position is filled; however, to qualify for a September 2015 start, applicants should establish contact as soon as possible.
