Staffing and volunteer opportunities in our lab
Postdoctoral Associate/ Microbiology/ Florida State University
Position available for participation in environmental research focusing on structure-function relationships of anaerobic prokaryotes in subsurface sediments. Duties will include field and laboratory research as part of an active, multidisciplinary group. Training and experience in microbiology is required. Preference will be given to applicants with a Ph.D. and laboratory experience as well as those with experience in microbial community analysis using molecular biology techniques and/ or the cultivation of anaerobic prokaryotes. The salary is negotiable and will be commensurate with experience; up to a full-time non-tenured faculty position with benefits is available. Tallahassee is an affordable University community in Florida’s “Nature Coast”, located about 45 min. north of the Gulf of Mexico.
To apply for this position, send a cover letter detailing previous experience and a curriculum vitae to Dr. Joel Kostka, jkostka@ocean.fsu.edu, Oceanography Dept., Florida State University, Tallahassee, Florida, 32306-4320. Applications will be accepted until a suitable individual is found.
