Re: [ECOLOG-L] mac/endnote
I recently (less than 1 year) switched from EndNote to Bookends, and I am very pleased with this program. I got sick of the $99 upgrade that is always levied with EndNote users with each new iteration of MS Word. For Bookends, it's ready to go with Word 2011, there is a pretty large support community, and the developer is really on the ball and responsive to questions and suggestions. There are some nice features for organizing and maintaining reference libraries across different Macs as well as a simple webserver interface if you want to start sharing references. You can download an evaluation copy and give it a try: http://www.sonnysoftware.com/ Best, Mark Warner
[ECOLOG-L] Postdoc & Student positions in coral ocean acidification
Postdoctoral and PhD student positions available for coral ocean acidification project in U.S. Available immediately: One postdoc position and one PhD student position to join a recently funded research project investigating the physiological impacts of ocean acidification, temperature and nutrients on reef building corals. These positions will be through the University of Delaware and based on the marine campus of the College of Earth, Ocean, and Environment in Lewes DE (http://www.ceoe.udel.edu/academics/smsp/index.shtml). Desired (but not required) qualifications for the student position are a Masters in biological science, experience in coral, algal, or plant physiology and/or molecular biology. Qualifications for the postdoc are a PhD in marine or biological science, with a focus on ocean acidification, photosynthesis research and/or algal and cnidarian physiology. Current funding is for two years, with an expected continuation of funding for the student position beyond this project. Please submit applications/inquires electronically to Dr. Mark Warner at mwar...@udel.edu. Please include the subject line graduate student application or postdoc application in your email. For students, please include in a single pdf file: a statement of your research experience and goals, CV, GRE scores, unofficial transcript and the names and contact information for three references. Applications to graduate school may be initiated here: http://www.udel.edu/gradoffice/apply/. For postdocs, please include a single pdf file containing, cover letter, CV, and the names and contact information of three references. The University of Delaware is an equal opportunity employer, which encourages applications from minority group members and women.
[ECOLOG-L] Faculty position: Marine Microbial Ecologist
Marine Microbial Ecologist, Assistant Professor, University of Delaware: The College of Marine and Earth Studies (CMES) invites applications for a nine-month, tenure-track faculty position in marine microbial ecology. The position is available after January 2009, and is located at the Lewes campus. Responsibilities will include development of a vigorous research program, teaching, and advisement of graduate students. We are looking for candidates applying molecular tools to understand the ecology of marine archaea, bacteria or protists. Examples of relevant research areas include biogeochemical cycles, metagenomics, molecular sensors, and organismal interactions (e.g. predator-prey, virus-host, and symbioses). For more information, please see www.ocean.udel.edu/Positions/Microbes. Applicants should submit: 1) a statement of research and teaching interests, 2) curriculum vitae, and 3) the names and contact information for three references in a single pdf document to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] or by mail to: David L. Kirchman, College of Marine and Earth Studies, University of Delaware, Lewes, DE 19958. Review of applications will begin after April 15, 2008. All application materials shall be shared with departmental faculty. The University of Delaware is an Equal Opportunity Employer, which encourages applications from Minority Group Members and Women.
Graduate opportunity in marine algal ecological physiology
A Ph.D. student fellowship (3 years funding) in cyanobacterial photosynthesis physiology and protein and gene expression is available at the College of Marine and Earth Studies at the University of Delaware starting in the spring of 2007. This is a collaborative project between the University of Delaware, Old Dominion University, and the University of Southern California.The project will investigate the impact of currently projected increases in global CO2 and temperature on the biogeochemistry and physiological ecology of several nitrogen fixing marine cyanobacteria, including Trichodesmium spp., in the laboratory as well as the field. Applicants should have an interest in algal or plant physiology and biochemistry (molecular biology skills are a plus). The applicants should also possess strong writing and communication skills, and a strong work ethic. Review of applications will begin immediately. Submit (preferably by e-mail) a short letter of interest that includes a description of work experience and career goals, curriculum vitae, unofficial copies of transcripts, GRE scores, and the names and contact information (phone and e-mail address) of 3 academic references to: Dr. Mark Warner, College of Marine and Earth Studies, 700 Pilottown Rd., Lewes, DE 19958, Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> .
