The successful candidate will engage an interdisciplinary group of faculty to advance the understanding of climate change adaptation. A variety of research projects are possible, depending on the expertise of the selected candidate, but emphasis should be on advancing knowledge of how adaptation to climate pressures impact the human condition. For example, the researcher might examine how differences in adaptive capacity could impact crop yields or the spread of infectious disease, or alternatively, the relationship between adaptation and armed conflict or cooperation. Ultimately, the resulting scholarship, which should include peer-reviewed manuscripts and conference presentations, will inform society about the role of adaptation under conditions of climate change. The Postdoctoral Research Associate will be appointed for a one-year term, with the possibility of renewal. We invite applicants from any relevant field, including but not limited to political science, geography, environmental biology, or economics. Successful applicants will have considerable quantitative skills and interdisciplinary experience. Highly-qualified applicants should have experience manipulating large data sets or models and have a strong understanding of the linkages between theory, evidence and policy relevant inference. Some experience in seeking extramural funding is preferred. The start date is somewhat flexible but priority status will be given to candidates who are available to start as soon as possible. For more information about the position, contact Patrick Regan at [email protected]. To apply, send a cover letter, CV, and names of three references in one PDF file to [email protected].
