The Stouffer Lab (http://stoufferlab.org) at the University of
Canterbury (New Zealand) is seeking applicants for a two-year
post-doctoral research fellowship to study the importance of
non-additive competition in ecological communities. Though based at the
University of Canterbury, the research will also be conducted in close
collaboration with Prof. Margaret Mayfield (University of Queensland,
Australia) and members of her research team
(http://mayfieldplantecologylab.org/).
The salary for this position is NZD$65,000-70,000 (plus benefits), and
is secured for the duration of the two-year position. Funding is also in
place for anticipated research costs, including travel to visit project
collaborators and to attend national and international conferences. The
target start date is early 2019, though this is negotiable.
Because of the project's interdisciplinary nature and emphasis on
combining theory with empirical data, we are open to applicants from
ecology, biology, engineering, applied mathematics, physics, computer
science, and related areas. Applicants from all fields must demonstrate
that they have sufficient mathematical and programming skills to lead
the project’s modelling component.
Interested applicants should go to
http://stoufferlab.org/opportunities/postdoc/ for additional information
about the project, details about the official application process, and
our broader research group.
The deadline for applications is 9 December 2018 (midnight NZST).
Any questions regarding this position should be sent to Daniel Stouffer
(daniel.stouf...@canterbury.ac.nz).
