[Canada] MSc and PhD Position in Molecular Ecology at the University of New Brunswick

2 Graduate Positions: Population Genetics, Phylogeography, Speciation

I seek two highly motivated and enthusiastic candidates to fill full time graduate student positions (MSc or PhD) in molecular ecology in the Department of Biology at the University of New Brunswick (Fredericton). My research focuses on the comparative population genetics and phylogeography of north Atlantic marine invertebrates and freshwater insects, and the biogeography of speciation in strongylocentrotid sea urchins.

Successful candidates should have a strong background in ecology and evolution, interests in population genetics and statistics, and preferably some experience with molecular techniques (but not required).
