Postdoc position, Umass Medical School, Predator-Prey interactions

A postdoctoral position is available in the Alkema lab at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester MA, USA

We study the neuro-ethology of the nematode escape response. We are looking for a highly motivated post-doctoral researcher to study predator-prey interactions between nematodes and predacious fungi.

Applicants must have a Ph.D. in biology or related field. Expertise in molecular biology, biochemistry, or ecology is required. Experience with C. elegans or fungi is a plus, but not necessary. If interested, please send a letter, a Curriculum Vitae and a list of three references to:
