We are building an interdisciplinary team to examine the ecology of an insect-vectored plant pathogen in potato crops. Our USDA-funded research bridges landscape ecology, molecular biology, plant-insect interactions and disease modeling in the framework of agricultural systems. We are seeking candidates with experience in one or more of these areas. The project is in partnership with a large group of cooperating growers, and the PhD students will help lead our outreach efforts. For more information please visit http://entomology.wsu.edu/bill-snyder/ or http://entomology.wsu.edu/david-crowder/, and to apply send CV and statement of interest to Bill Snyder ([email protected]) or Dave Crowder ([email protected]).
