PhD Research in Sexual Selection
Research Opportunities Posted by Clint Kelly on 2009 October 09 (Friday) : 02:18 PM
from the dept.
A 5-year, funded (with tuition waiver) PhD position is available under the supervision of Dr. Clint Kelly at Iowa State University (http://web.mac.com/clintkelly1/Site/Home.html) beginning August 2010. I am seeking a motivated student to study sexual selection including, but not limited to, 1) sperm competition and ejaculate expenditure in fish or insects; or 2) the physiological and reproductive costs and trade-offs of investment in immunity. My lab uses an empirical approach in the field and laboratory to examine a broad set of topics in behavioural and evolutionary ecology and we employ a variety of techniques and procedures to address research questions, including: molecular genotyping, immunological assays, phylogenetic comparative studies, geometric morphometrics and meta-analysis. The Kelly research group belongs to the large, research-active Department of Ecology, Evolution & Organismal Biology at ISU (http://www.eeob.iastate.edu/). If interested in pursuing a graduate degree in my lab please send a brief description of your research interests and a CV to cdkelly@iastate.edu.
