Applications are being sought from students with grit and optimism that wish to pursue a Doctoral degree studying conservation physiology and behavior in fish or amphibians. Students should have both curiosity and zest about conservation, physiology and behavior starting in fall 2019 or later. We can offer an Instructional Assistant (teaching labs) for the length of your degree (but also possible grant funding). See http://gabor.wp.txstate.edu/ for details about our lab, papers and our research interests.
The Department of Biology offers a strong environment for training students in conservation, physiology, behavior, and evolutionary ecology. We have a Doctoral program in Aquatic Resources and Integrative Biology. For program information see https://www.gradcollege.txstate.edu/programs/aquatic-resources-phd.html Interested students should send an email with a statement of interest that includes topics you might be interested in working on in our lab and your long term goals/interests. Please include a copy of your CV (including GRE scores and GPA) and contact information for 3 references to Caitlin Gabor (gabor at txstate.edu). Reference letters for top candidates will be solicited at a later date. Applications will be reviewed as they come in. For a fall 2019 start date, there will need to be a fast response as the deadline for receipt of application materials is January 15, 2018. I will also consider applications who apply later.
