Job Description:
The Department of Biology at the University of Miami, Coral Gables, Florida, invites applications for two open rank tenure-track positions in the following areas of plant biology.
Plant-Microbial Symbiosis: Outstanding candidates engaged in answering fundamental questions in microbial or mycorrhizal plant symbioses using molecular approaches are encouraged to apply.
Ecosystems Ecologist: Outstanding candidates using experimental or modeling approaches to study nutrient cycles and their impact on processes such as population dynamics, biodiversity or terrestrial productivity are encouraged to apply.
For both positions, we are seeking scientists who will complement the existing strengths of our department and can also contribute to a university-wide initiative to recruit researchers looking at energy problems from different disciplinary perspectives. These individuals will interact with Biology faculty having a broad range of interests such as symbiosis, plant-animal interactions, demography, ecophysiology and evolution. In addition, the Department of Biology has a joint program with the Mathematics Department (Institute of Theoretical and Mathematical Ecology), and has strong interactions with the Abess Center for Ecosystem Science & Policy and the Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden.
Inquiries may be directed to the Search Chair at plantsearch@bio.miami.edu. Details on the Department of Biology and our strengths and foci can be found at: http://www.as.miami.edu/biology/
Candidates must hold a PhD with a minimum of two years of postdoctoral experience. Applications should include a full curriculum vitae, including a listing of all publications and contact information of three references. Copies of three relevant publications, statements of research objectives and teaching interests should also be included. A cover letter outlining how the applicant will complement the current research areas of the Department of Biology and link with a campus-wide initiative on interdisciplinary approaches to research on energy should be included. Application materials for the respective positions must be uploaded to either http://www.as.miami.edu/biology/plantmicrobialSymbiosis/ or http://www.as.miami.edu/biology/EcosystemEcologist/ by November 15, 2014.
The University of Miami is an Equal Opportunity Employer — Females/Minorities/Protected Veterans/Individuals with Disabilities are encouraged to apply. Applicants and employees are protected from discrimination based on certain categories protected by Federal law.
