University of Guam Marine Laboratory-Guam EPSCoR Post-Doctoral Fellowship

The postdoc will conduct research to help achieve NSF EPSCoR E-RISE goals and develop a research program for the newly created Guam Center for Biodiversity Research (GCBR) including: 1) comparing crustacean communities across eight coral reef sites; 2) conducting independent systematics and/or ecological research; 3) curatorial assistance; and 4) co-advising a master’s student. Comparisons across sites will involve SCUBA collections, identification, and analysis of crustaceans and communities associated with live coral, rubble, macroalgae, ARMS, and other hosts/replicate samples. Taxonomic and field experience are important qualifications. Full solicitation is attached and available at https://www.uog.edu/rcuog/job-announcements
