<p class="MsoNormal">We seek an exceptional postdoctoral fellow to conduct independent research in the growing interdisciplinary field of soil and environmental microbial ecology. This basic research seeks to better understand the ecosystem processes that are
mediated by crop, soil, and environmental inhabiting microbial communities. In addition to standard microbiological and analytical techniques used in crops and soil sciences, activities will include the characterization of bacterial and fungal associations
by using light, scanning and confocal microscopy, gas chromatography, molecular and genomics/post genomics techniques, bioinformatics and statistics. The project may also have a geochemistry component that focuses on analytical methods, using electron microscopy,
X-ray spectroscopy, and diffraction techniques. Related activities include laboratory work; supervising graduate students; data analysis; maintenance and calibration of laboratory equipment; report, manuscript, and proposal preparation; and presentation of
research at local, regional, and national meetings. Opportunities exist to interact closely with a group of accomplished intramural and extramural collaborators, including at collaborating academic institutions and the USDA ARS facilities.<u></u><u></u></p>
