I am searching for a postdoc to join my lab in spring 2018 and will begin review of applications on Jan. 1. If you are interested, please submit your application before that date.
The Gedan lab at The George Washington University investigates the response of coastal and marine species and ecosystems to global changes in climate, sea level, nutrient availability, and invasive species. We focus on conservation-priority, shallow, marine ecosystems, especially tidal marsh. We are interested in marsh migration and the conversion of natural and human-dominated uplands, as well as the novel ecosystems and interactions occurring in transitioning coastal areas. Our team primarily relies upon an experimental approach in the greenhouse and the field. Established field sites are in the estuaries and coastal bays of the Mid-Atlantic. Funding is available for 2 years with a competitive salary and benefits package. Conference travel and travel to field sites will also be supported. The Biological Sciences Department at GWU has a vibrant community and strength in ecology and evolutionary biology. The lab is located in a newly constructed, interdisciplinary science building in downtown Washington, DC, across the street from the Foggy Bottom Metro station and blocks away from the Smithsonian National History Museum, as well as many other institutions and NGOs that provide opportunities for research collaboration and outreach.
