Subject: Graduate research in Lower Plant Ecophysiology / Environmental
Genomics at Case
From: Andrew K. Swanson (aks25 at case.edu)
Date: Wed 04 Feb 2004 - 21:12:03 GMT
Global change research opportunities (MS and PhD level), investigating
physiological response or structure/function disruption to algal and
fungal dominated ecosystems, are currently available for creative and
highly motivated individuals. Potential research topics involving
manipulated Midwestern pond/stream mesocosms, Pacific Northwest marine
kelp forests, coastal rainforest epiphytes, or Appalachian lithic
communities are possible.
Applicants should possess interests in ecophysiology, evolutionary
ecology, conservation or field biology. Previous experience with lower
plants, molecular tools or chemical ecology preferred, but not
required. Full tuition waivers and stipends ($18,000) are available to
qualified applicants.
With numerous social, cultural (http://www.universitycircle.org/), and
sporting venues, as well as pristine natural areas close by
(http://www.clemetparks.com;http://www.nps.gov/cuva/index.htm),
Cleveland is a hip, entertaining and affordable place to live. For
further information, please send CV and a brief statement of research
interests to Andrew K. Swanson (aks25 at case.edu)
(http://www.cwru.edu/artsci/biol/swanson.htm), Department of Biology,
Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio by February 15, 2004
to receive full consideration.
