postdoctoral position in Global Socioeconomic Drivers of Insect Invasions at UC Davis

by Andrew Liebhold

Hello forest entomology colleagues, We are recruiting for a two-year postdoc position at the University of California Davis (USA). The postdoc will be co-advised by Mike Springborn, and Andrew Liebhold of the U.S. Forest Service (USFS). The position is part of a USFS-funded initiative on “Global Socioeconomic Drivers of Insect Invasions”. The postdoc will work closely with an interdisciplinary working group of economists, ecologists and entomologists collaborating in the analysis of historical insect establishments worldwide in relation to economic and biogeographic factors. The working group is sponsored by the National Socio-Environmental Synthesis Center (SESYNC) located in Annapolis, MD. The central goal of this project is to explore the socioeconomic drivers of historical insect invasions around the world to better understand the pathways by which species have been transported and the forces responsible for these invasions. A full description of the position and how to apply can be found at http://bit.do/springborn_post_doc. Review of applicants will begin September 21, 2018 and continue until the position is filled. The preferred start date is fall of 2018 or as soon as possible; the exact start date is flexible. Please share with all who might have interest. Sincerely, Mike Springborn Sandy Liebhold UC Davis US Forest Service Northern Res. Station Associate Professor https://www.nrs.fs.fed.us/people/aliebhold springborn.faculty.ucdavis.edu aliebhold(a)gmail.com
