Graduate student position in Biology at University of Mississippi

The Garrick lab is seeking MS or PhD students to design and implement
projects focused on: (1) Comparative phylogeography (reconstructing &
comparing long-term population history of ecologically co-associated
taxa); (2) Biodiversity hotspot prediction (surveying, quantifying,
and predicting the spatial distribution of inter- and/or intraspecific
biodiversity in the present  and near future); OR (3) other projects
closely related to evolution, and biodiversity conservation.

The lab has expertise in working with forest arthropods
(esp. dead-wood-associated), and montane landscape settings
(esp. Appalachians), but we are versatile. We encourage integration
of fieldwork, molecular lab work, and computer simulations to advance
understanding of evolutionary processes or to reconstruct past events.

Contact Ryan Garrick  via email (rgarrick[at]olemiss.edu) to discuss
potential projects.

The  University of Mississippi Biology
graduate application guidelines are available here
(https://biology.olemiss.edu/programs/graduate/application-procedure/),
and for a Fall start, materials are due by January 15th 2024.
