The lab of Sean McMahon at the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center is
looking for a postdoctoral researcher in forest genetics, population
biology, and ecology.  This position is funded by an NSF grant to Sean
McMahon, Nate Swenson at the University of Maryland, and Stuart Davies, at
the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute.  The project investigates
genetic variation in tree growth with an interest in linking climate,
demography, functional traits, transcriptomes and ecosystem processes in
two temperate forests. The position will be based at the Smithsonian
Environmental Research Center in Edgewater Maryland.  The position will
collaborate closely with the Swenson lab and the CTFS-ForestGEO research
network (http://www.forestgeo.si.edu).



Desired qualifications include: a PhD in ecology and evolutionary biology,
knowledge of modern genetic methods (i.e. transcriptomics, sequence
capture, and/or population genomics), excellent quantitative skills and
knowledge of bioinformatics, advanced programming skills in R, and strong
writing and communication skills.



This postdoc position will begin as soon as December 2016, but the start
date can be flexible. Initial appointment is for two years, and is
potentially renewable. Salary starts at 48K with benefits.


To apply send a single PDF file containing a cover letter, CV, contact
information for three references, and two relevant publications or
manuscripts to KrizelL at si.edu with "SERC Postdoc Position" in the subject
line. Applications will be reviewed on a continuing basis until the
position is filled.



Please contact Sean McMahon at mcmahons at si.edu with any questions.
