Subject: [ECOLOG-L] Graduate Position: U Oregon Ecology & Evolutionary Biol.

Applications are now being accepted for integrative graduate education in
Ecology, Evolution, Development, and Genomics at the University of Oregon
(UO).

The Department of Biology and the Center for Ecology and Evolutionary
Biology (CEEB) at the University of Oregon seek outstanding applicants for
the PhD program. We are looking for highly motivated students who wish to
develop high-caliber research programs in any area of ecology and
evolutionary biology.

CEEB consists of a dynamic, energetic, and highly interactive group of
faculty members, graduate students, and postdocs whose research interests
are world-renowned and span traditional disciplines. Particular strengths of
the group include molecular evolution, evolutionary genetics and genomics,
evolution of development, and microbial, population, community, and
ecosystems ecology.  CEEB maintains close ties with other research
institutes and departments on campus, including the Institutes of Molecular
Biology and Neuroscience, the Oregon Institute of Marine Biology, and the
Departments of Chemistry, Geography, Computer Science, Geology, and
Landscape Architecture. Our integrative approach to research and graduate
education is supported by numerous grants, training grants, and fellowships
from both federal and privately-funded sources.  

The University of Oregon is located in the heart of Eugene, a progressive
and very livable city of approximately 200,000 people. Eugene provides many
opportunities for intellectual and cultural stimulation, and its location is
ideal for the naturalist at heart being within an easy 1-2 hour drive of
both the Cascade Mountains and the Oregon Coast. It is consistently voted
one of the top ten greenest cities in the U.S.

For more information about CEEB and individual faculty research interests,
please see the CEEB website (http://ceeb.uoregon.edu) as well as individual
lab websites. For information about graduate studies in the Department of
Biology, or to submit an online application, please see:
