Post-doctoral fellowship in Biology at the University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, Canada
The Northern Plant Ecology Lab (NPEL) at the University of Saskatchewan (Canada) is looking to fill a one-year post-doctoral fellowship (PDF) focused on successional dynamics in boreal forests (for more details, see http://npelusask.weebly.com/openings.html). This is a limited term, 1 year PDF position paid at a rate of $40,000-$45,000 per year, with a portion of funds allocated to project travel as needed. The fellowship will be held in the Department of Biology at the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon, SK, Canada under the supervision of Dr. Jill Johnstone. Residence in Saskatoon is not required, however the PDF should be willing to travel to Saskatoon a few times during the year to facilitate collaborative work.
We are looking for a candidate who has completed a PhD within the past five years, and who shows evidence of strong quantitative skills and experience with forest ecology and vegetation succession. Ability to work independently and meet regular milestones is essential, as are strong communication skills in English. To apply, please send a cover letter, CV, and examples of 2 research papers to Dr. Jill Johnstone by email (jill.johnstone@usask.ca). Your cover letter should address your interest in the project and what skills and experience you can bring to the work. Preference will be given to Canadian citizens and permanent residents. Review of applications will start on 6 November 2015, and we hope to fill the position for a January 1, 2016 start date.
