Postdoctoral Position, Macroinvertebrate Ecology of Mongolian Streams and Rivers
Closing Date: April 13, 2009
The Academy of Natural Sciences, Philadelphia (ANSP) announces a postdoctoral fellowship in the Mongolian Aquatic Insect Survey Project (MAIS) (http://clade.ansp.org/entomology/mongolia ). Funding is provided through the National Science Foundation and The Academy of Natural Sciences. This postdoctoral fellowship provides the opportunity to focus on the analysis of our extensive semi-quantitative and qualitative data from the 2003-2006 Selenge Basin surveys, also known as the Selenge River Project (SRP), and the current Mongolian Altai surveys. It will also entail the development of criteria from these analyses needed for using insect distributions in monitoring water quality. The postdoctoral scientist is expected to participate in field sampling in summer 2009 as part of an international team of scientists. In addition, the postdoctoral scientist will work with our close partners in the Mongolian Institute of Meteorology and Hydrology (IMH), to train their staff in use of these criteria. The IMH is mandated to conduct biological monitoring of streams in Mongolia.
The postdoctoral scientist will be located in Philadelphia, in the Academy’s Entomology department, with office and lab space, and access to the Academy’s specimen collections, library, molecular laboratory and digital imaging center. The Postdoctoral Scientist will have Academy colleagues ranging from evolutionary biologists to applied aquatic ecologists. This Mongolian project is part of a larger research effort in Asia by Academy scientists (http://asia.ansp.org/ )
Position is open until filled, but we anticipate reviewing applications as early as April 13, 2009
The Academy of Natural Sciences is an Equal Opportunity Employer. Minorities, women, the disabled or veterans are all encouraged to apply.
