Instructor Needed for Herpetology Field Course
The American Museum of Natural History's Southwestern Research Station (http://research.amnh.org/swrs/) located in the Chiricahua Mountains of S.E. Arizona is looking for a herpetologist to co-organize a summer herpetology field course. Over the 10 day course, students will get an in-depth experience in field herpetology and research of amphibians and reptiles found in a diversity of habitats in Southwestern Arizona and parts of Northeastern New Mexico. This newly developed course will run from 24 July to 3 August. Several herpetologists from the local area will participate by lecturing on topics in their area of expertise and leading field trips. The co-organizer will work with Dawn S. Wilson, Director of the SWRS, to help organize and run the course. The co-teacher will be given travel expenses, room and board, and the opportunity to teach in one of the world's Biodiversity Hotspots. If interested, send short resume and a brief summary of recent work and publications to address below (or email). Dawn S. Wilson, Ph.D. Director, Southwestern Research Station P.O.
