GRAD POSITION: MSc position aquatic ecology and conservation at Laurentian University w/ flexible start date. Contact Brie Edwards (see ALT text) for more details #AcademicSky
We are currently seeking a MSc domestic student (i.e. Canadian citizen or permanent resident) to join a cohort of newly recruited HQP. The project will focus on developing and testing novel stream biomonitoring methods incorporating eDNA to assay community membership from microbes to fish. These rapid bioassessment techniques will be tested against traditional approaches in their ability to produce functional, community and multi-trophic indicators of ecosystem integrity and biodiversity along a gradient of impact recovery. The student will be hosted at Laurentian University (Dr. Brie Edwards) and co-supervised by Dr. Erik Emilson (Natural Resources Canada). Field work will begin in Spring of 2025 and will be conducted in the Sudbury area. As such we are recruiting a student interested in starting May 2025. Ideal candidates will have a strong background in aquatic ecology and an interest in benthic bioindicators, molecular techniques, and population and community responses to environmental change. Quantitative skills in statistical analysis are desired but can be provided through training programs at the respective institutions. Interested students should send a CV, cover letter expressing interest and relevant skills, as well as a copy of unofficial transcripts to Brie Edwards (bedwards2@laurentian.ca). Please include “CRADLES graduate interest” as the subject line.

I have a PhD position open to start fall semester 2025! The position will include investigations of the structure of both phenotypic (behavioral) plasticity and genetic variation in behavior as well as lots of opportunity to develop your own project. #Evolution #evobio #evolsky #Ecology 🧪
Flier for PhD position. Text with a lab logo at the bottom with a cricket silhouette of a cricket with antenna that look like normal curves. Also has a picture of a cricket (Acheta domesticus) on a white background.
Text:
Crickets! Behavior! 
Genetics! Statistics!

The Dochtermann Lab in the Department of  Biological Sciences at North Dakota State University is seeking to fill a PhD assistantship examining how selection has shaped phenotypic plasticity and patterns of genetic variance. 
The position will start Fall Semester 2025 and the
incoming student will be joining a dynamic department (www.ndsu.edu/biology) and an interdisciplinary graduate program that provides a broad foundation for success (www.ndsu.edu/ecs).

For more information about the lab visit www.neddochtermann.com

If interested, please contact me at ned.dochtermann@gmail.com with a brief synopsis of your research interests.
