Job Title: Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Marine Host-Parasite Dynamics

We are seeking a highly motivated and experienced postdoctoral research fellow to join our team at the University of British Columbia. The successful candidate will work on a project exploring the role of environmental variation in shaping the dynamics of parasite infection in intertidal marine invertebrates.

Project Overview:

The Sentinels of Change Alliance is a collaborative research project between the University of British Columbia and Hakai Institute. The project aims to deepen our understanding of Salish Sea biodiversity change at an unprecedented scale and resolution. The successful candidate will contribute to the development of standard observation systems for biodiversity, conduct experiments to test hypotheses about the causes of diversity change, and integrate knowledge from observation and experimental systems into a sustainable ongoing biodiversity observation system for the Salish Sea.

Responsibilities:
  • Use state-of-the-art empirical practices and methods to test hypotheses about invertebrate-parasite ecological and/or evolutionary dynamics.
  • Apply expert knowledge of host-parasite interactions to hypothesis development and result interpretation.
  • Collaborate with the Sentinels team of scientists, postdocs, field and data technicians.
  • Publish results in peer-reviewed journals in a timely fashion.
  • Be curious and engaged with the project and the work, willing to learn and grow.
  • Employ excellent communication skills with colleagues, collaborators, and mentors about all aspects of the projects.
Requirements:
  • PhD in a relevant field (e.g., parasitology, evolutionary ecology, biodiversity research).
  • Experience leading field and experimental projects in the fields of parasitology, evolutionary ecology, and biodiversity research.
  • Academic background in parasitology, evolutionary ecology, and biodiversity research.
What We Offer:

The University of British Columbia offers a competitive salary and benefits package, as well as opportunities for professional development and collaboration with a team of experienced researchers. The position is based at the Vancouver campus of the University of British Columbia, which lies on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territory of the Musqueam people.

How to Apply:

Please email your application, including your curriculum vitae, two reference letters, and sample research publications, to Michelle McEwan at michelle.mcewan@ubc.ca.
