Yale University, Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology (http://www.eeb.yale.edu/). A group of faculty is seeking Postdoctoral Associate(s) to work on the evolution and ecological consequences of plasticity in life history and other traits affecting evolutionary and ecological interactions focusing either on (a) the theory of population and community dynamics in an eco-evolutionary/adaptive dynamics setting or (b) empirical tests of the predictions of such theory in lab and field.
Applicants should have a general background in evolutionary and ecological theory. For (a), applicants must have previous experience developing mathematical models; individuals with experience using adaptive dynamics, game theory, or evolutionary quantitative genetics are especially encouraged to apply. For (b), applicants should have lab or field experience working with a relevant ecological community.
Salary $40,000; position for one year with a second year possible given satisfactory performance. Starting date negotiable. The successful candidate will be mentored by Suzanne Alonzo, David Post, Stephen Stearns, and David Vasseur, either together or as an appropriate subset.
