<br>
The Department of Entomology, University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, invites applications for a PhD graduate research assistantship in systematic entomology.<br>
<br>
The graduate student will work under the supervision of Dr. Robin Thomson, Curator of the University of Minnesota Insect Collection, and will participate in an NSF funded project that explores the diversity, phylogenetics, and biogeography of the microcaddisflies
(Trichoptera: Hydroptilidae). They will conduct independent research exploring the evolutionary history of one of the microcaddisfly subfamilies; research will include training in current phylogenetic analysis using both morphological and molecular data, generic
revisions and species descriptions, fieldwork involving international travel (international passport will be required), and museum collection curation and management.<br>
<br>
The successful candidate will be highly motivated and independent, have research experience, a demonstrated interest in taxonomy and systematics, and a strong academic record in evolutionary biology, entomology, or related field. Experience in systematics,
phylogenomics, or biogeography is a plus, but not required.<br>
<br>
Please contact me directly to express your interest (Robin Thomson, <a href="mailto:thom1514@umn.edu" target="_blank" style="font-family:Georgia,serif">
thom1514@umn.edu</a>). Candidates will also need to apply to the Entomology Department graduate program (<a href="https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Furldefense.com%2Fv3%2F__https%3A%2F%2Fentomology.umn.edu%2Fgraduate%2Fprospective-students__%3B!!KwNVnqRv!T6YSxzAY38a4A_-i7WlOKvcQFrdZJe6wUNGO7oB1e6JaoIJTuUKpD9aBTIn8nDo%24&data=04%7C01%7CTeresa.Gold%40ag.tamu.edu%7Cefdfe86b073142c1489c08da00fce6b2%7C9fd7580a64724d9ca142d131d3a7a116%7C0%7C0%7C637823383442283702%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=hOL73hAbYJAy3vW%2FTf%2BSFc5PJ4GqbgJUwvuh7zdwzOE%3D&reserved=0" target="_blank" style="font-family:Georgia,serif">https://entomology.umn.edu/graduate/prospective-students</a>)
