I’m searching for a post-doc to join my research team on a collaborative NSF project. Note that the start date is negotiable. Appointment is for one year with potential for renewal based on satisfactory progress. See details below and reach out with any questions.
Applications are invited for a Post-Doctoral Research Scientist position in the Geomorphology and Landscape Evolution Team of the Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, Indiana University. The position is part of a collaborative NSF-funded project aimed at understanding the influence of tectonics and surface processes on the formation and preservation of biodiversity. The post-doctoral scientist will work on integrating novel numerical models that couple landscape (e.g., uplift, erosion) and biotic (e.g., mutation, dispersal) processes with records of paleobiodiversity to explore the geomorphic control on how biodiversity is preserved in the fossil record. The project is in collaboration with Dr. Tara Smiley of Stony Brook’s Department of Ecology and Evolution.
The Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at Indiana University includes numerous faculty and research groups with relevance to geomorphology and landscape evolution. The selected candidate will be encouraged to interact across the department to build new collaborations as they continue to advance their career.
