Postdocs in the Ecology of Biodiversity, Conservation & Extinction

Two post-doctoral positions are available for collaborative research seeking deeper understanding of and solutions to problems related to biodiversity, extinction and/or ecosystem services. Dependent on the skills and interests of the post-doc, research may be theoretical, empirical, conceptual or experimental, and might focus on analyses of human-caused extinction risks and their prevention, the causes of multispecies coexistence in foodwebs and impacts of the loss of this biodiversity, or other biodiversity, extinction and conservation issues. Each position is annually renewable for up to three years.

Please apply by submitting a CV, a cover letter stating your research interests, and pdf's of up to three reprints or manuscripts to www.myu.umn.edu/employment (Job ID# 317491).
