I am looking for well qualified students who are interested in perusing a PhD in plant ecology. PhD studentships are available within the Geography Department at Loughborough University to start 1st October 2009. These awards cover home tuition fees and a stipend for living expenses (approximately equivalent to UK Research Council stipends - currently c. £13k per annum).
I am particularly interested in hearing from students who are interested in pursuing projects in the ecology of carnivorous plants or nutrient dynamics in forests. I would strongly encourage potential applicants to contact me (preferably by email) before applying, including a brief outline of your background and potential research project. My contact details can be found here: http://www.lboro.ac.uk/departments/gy/staff/gyjm/index.html Details of how to apply can be found here: http://www.lboro.ac.uk/prospectus/pg/essential/apply/index.htm Jon Millett
