POST-DOCTORAL POSITION Molecular Ecology of Freshwater Fish A 2-year NSF postdoctoral position (with possible extension) is available at the University of Kansas to study the molecular ecology of freshwater fish in the laboratory of Dr. Garrick T. Skalski (www.ku.edu/~eeb/faculty/skalski.html) as part of a joint project with Dr. Bruce S. Weir (http:// www.biostat.washington.edu/people/faculty.php?netid=bsweir). The broad objective of the project is to examine the evolutionary ecology of fish populations while evaluating a method for high- throughput allele frequency estimation using microsatellite markers. Specific areas of interest include the analysis of spatial population structure, landscape genetics, the estimation of effective population size, and the identification of heritable traits of ecological significance. The ideal candidate will be highly motivated, open-minded, and enthusiastic about working in the field and laboratory with individuals at all levels of training. Complete details and the online application can be found at position #000666674 via https://jobs.ku.edu. Review of applications will begin March 1, 2006. Informal inquiries are encouraged and should be directed to Dr. Garrick T. Skalski ([EMAIL PROTECTED], 785-864-5877).
