Two open positions at The Insect Management and Molecular Diagnostics
Laboratory (IMMDL
<https://www.aphis.usda.gov/aphis/ourfocus/planthealth/ppq-program-overview/science-technology/immdl-texas>,
Edinburg, Texas) will be working on entomology and biology of fruit flies
to develop or assist in the development of new and enhanced methods,
practices, and procedures necessary to improve the effectiveness of the
mass production of fruit flies, and the development of new technology used
in sterile insect technique (SIT) control strategies.  Project
responsibilities encompass planning and execution of methods development
efforts for the biological and sterile insect technique control of invasive
fruit flies of economic importance.



The successful candidates will use scientific knowledge to select and adapt
existing methodology in the development and utilization of new technologies
in sterile insect technique, invasive fruit fly detection, control, and
eradication with potential for solving problems attributed to invasive
fruit flies of economic importance. The scientists will conduct both
laboratory and field investigations.to develop improved methods, diets,
quality control measures, insecticide testing, new diet development and
improvements, field studies on efficacy of attractants, lures, trapping
