Hi all,
Please see the advert below for a new professorship at FIU in Tropical Ecology. It would be great to see applications from coral reef folks, and I would be happy to answer informal questions about FIU (I am not on the search committee). Contact details for more formal questions to the search committee are contained in the advert.
Cheers
