We have one paid position available for an undergraduate USF student as a research assistant starting Fall semester 2012.
We are looking for a student with a strong interest in ecology; you must also have taken (or currently be taking) PCB 3043 or equivalent. Previous research experience is a strong plus.

She or he will participate in our regular weekly lab meetings, and will assist with a literature review on variation in reproductive output in plants, in consultation with me.
The position is for 10 hrs/week for the full school year, and can extend into summer 2013. Funds are from the National Science Foundation’s program in Research Experiences for Undergraduates.
