PhD opportunity at Kent State University

I am interested in finding a motivated individual to study the evolution of behavior in
the Biological Sciences Department at Kent State University in Ohio.

Two projects are available, 1. insect swarm formation and movement using Mormon crickets
as a model system, and 2. evolution of sex- differences in recombination using Drosophila
ananassae as a model system (see my web page for background on these projects).

Previous experience in animal behavior, with Drosophila, and/or with molecular techniques
or immunostaining would be an asset; a strong interest in evolution and behavior is
required.

Position will remain open until filled.
