	Minority Post-doc in Marine Ecology - Starting in 2009, a
minority post-doctoral research fellowship will be available in the
Silliman lab at the University of Florida.  To receive this fellowship
funding, the applicant must be a U.S. citizen and fit the current,
NSF-definition of a minority in science (Hispanic, African-American,
Native American, or Pacific Islander).  Potential research topics
include but are not limited: (1) community ecology of rocky shores, salt
marshes, mangroves, or coral reefs, (2) interactive impacts of
mesograzers, warming, and nutrients on disease-mediated control of
marine plant growth around the world, (3) assessing the cascading
impacts of over-fishing on salt marsh trophic interactions and primary
production and (4) biogeography of Caribbean rocky shore invertebrate
communities. Funding is available for up to two years and covers salary,
benefits, with the possibility for extension, especially through new
proposals generated.  The position will be based in the Zoology
Department (soon to be Biology) at the University of Florida
(http://zoo.ufl.edu/ <http://zoo.ufl.edu/> ).  The department has a
strong and growing program in Ecology and was recently ranked #1 in the
country in Zoology by The Chronicle of Higher Education.  Interested
candidates please send a CV, names of 2 references, and a 2-page
research statement to Brian Silliman at brs at ufl.edu.  Review of
applicants will begin December 1st.  For further information on research
in the Silliman lab see http://sillimanlab.com/.  The University of
Florida is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Institution.
