Subject: Graduate position: UMontana.EvolutionaryGenomics
The Good lab at the University of Montana in Missoula is looking to
recruit Ph.D. students interested in evolutionary genomics.
Current research projects in the lab are focused on the genetic basis of
reproductive isolation, molecular evolution, hybridization in natural
populations, and adaptation to novel environments. These topics are
addressed using diverse approaches including population genomics,
transcriptomics, and quantitative genetics. Based on current project
openings, students interested in speciation are particularly encouraged to
apply. All lab projects involve the generation and analysis of large-scale
genomic datasets, and so a strong interest in genomics is a prerequisite.
The University of Montana is home to a strong collection of faculty
researching ecology and evolution. The Division of Biological Sciences
hosts an excellent graduate program in Organismal Biology and Ecology
(OBE) with an emphasis on interdisciplinary training in evolution,
genetics, ecology, physiology, and behavior. Missoula is a great college
town in the heart of the Northern Rocky Mountains.

Interested students are encouraged to contact Dr. Good
(jeffrey.good@umontana.edu). Please include a brief description of your
research interests and a CV in your email. Note that the target date for
applications for Fall 2016 admission to the OBE program is December 1st.
