Hi Jim,
I hope you have been doing well!  I’m reaching out because the Infante lab is collaborating with the Applied Aquatic Ecology Lab at the University of Michigan, and the Institute for Fisheries Research (IFR) of the Michigan Department of Natural Resources to hire three (3) seasonal workers during summer 2024, and we’re hoping you could help us pass these along to any potential FW students that may be interested.  I’ve pasted the position descriptions and links to apply below.  Please let me know if you have any questions or if I can do anything to help get these advertised within FW.
Thanks!
Jared
