To: <ehos...@maine.edu>

The Molecular Conservation Genetics Lab at the University of
Wisconsin-Stevens Point seeks an MS student to lead research that will
develop and use genetic tools to characterize reproductive demographic
patterns of white sucker and longnose sucker in the Boardman/Ottaway
River in northwestern lower Michigan. The position will involve design
of genotyping-in-thousands (GT-seq) panels for each species that will
be used to generate estimates of the number of successful spawners and
effective number of breeders. The position is stationed at the University
of Wisconsin-Stevens Point in Stevens Point, WI and supports the FishPass
(http://www.glfc.org/fishpass.php) restoration project. The student will
work closely with fishery managers and biologists from state and tribal
agencies. Limited opportunities for fieldwork will also be available.

BS in Fisheries, Biology, Ecology, or related field. Experience in
generating and/or analyzing genetic data is preferred, but not strictly
required.

To apply, please email cover letter, CV/resume, unofficial transcripts,
and contact information for three references to Jared Homola
(jho...@uwsp.edu). Additional questions regarding the project should
be sent via email (jho...@uwsp.edu).
