from the dept. A MS/PHD Research Assistantship at Montana State University is available for a highly motivated student to conduct research on the ecology and management of brucellosis in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. Research projects are likely to include a combination of field ecology and mathematical modeling. We are currently focused on elk in the Jackson and Pinedale regions of Wyoming using historical datasets, satellite imagery, GPS tracking and hormone assays. In particular, we are interested in understanding how ecological and management-related factors affect the movement and aggregation of elk with cascading effects on disease. The student would work closely with a team of collaborators including Scott Creel (MSU), Paul Cross (USGS), Geneva Chong (USGS), Eric Cole (FWS), and Brandon Scurlock (WGFD). This position and the project are fully funded. Qualifications: Minimum GPA: 3.5; GRE: 1,200 (Q+V) Salary: ~18K / year + full tuition waiver. Applications will be accepted until the position is filled. Classes beginning as early as September 2008.
