The Garnas lab (http://colsa.unh.edu/faculty/garnas) seeks a highly motivated graduate student (MSc or PhD) to begin in Fall 2017. The topic of the successful student’s research is flexible but will fall broadly within the current themes of the lab, namely the ecology and evolution of insects and/or fungi within forested systems, particularly in the context of biological invasion. We use a variety of approaches including field and lab experiments, genetic tools including NextGen technologies, and modeling to address questions relevant to forest dynamics and forest pestilence. Creative, dynamic students with broad interests in ecology and evolution are encouraged to apply. Position will be funded by a Teaching Assistantship for a minimum of 1-2 years, with a Research Assistantship providing the balance.
The University of New Hampshire and the Department of Natural Resources and the Environment are home to a vibrant community of productive researchers with a strong commitment to student success (see http://www.unh.edu/unhtoday/2017/03/excellence-ecology for recent accolades). Located in the town of Durham, UNH is a beautiful campus surrounded by forest and natural landscapes. Only 30 minutes from the sea and less than 2 hours from the White Mountains, outdoor and other recreational activities abound, including right on campus.
Interested applicants, please send:
- a CV
- a brief summary of research interests, highlighting any relevant experience
- contact information for three references
as a SINGLE pdf file to foresthealth.gradposition(a)unh.edu<mailto:foresthealth.gradposition@unh.edu>. Position will be open until filled.

This meeting will be an excellent opportunity to discuss on a wide range of
topics, from status of pests and diseases to biosecurity and from monitoring
to management of forest insects and pathogens affecting intensively managed
commercial plantations. And of course, it will be also an opportunity to
