The NSF-funded Stoichiometric Traits of Organisms In their Chemical
Habitats (STOICH) team is recruiting applicants for 7-8 graduate student
positions for Summer/Fall 2021 across three different institutions. Our
interdisciplinary team will combine tools emerging from the data revolution
and the ecological stoichiometry framework to advance our understanding of
how the supply of carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus and other essential elements
constrain ecological, environmental, and evolutionary processes in aquatic
ecosystems. We are building a national database of biogeochemical, food
web, and organismal traits relevant to stoichiometry in aquatic ecosystems.
Students will receive training in data science and team science as they
develop relevant dissertation/thesis projects, and will interact with a
diverse team including ecologists, biogeochemists, evolutionary biologists,
data scientists, and artists. We aim to foster the development of a diverse
group of trainees, and we particularly encourage applications from members
of underrepresented groups. Student applicants will join graduate programs
at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (Drs. Jessica Corman and Steve
Thomas), the University of Wyoming (Drs. Sarah Collins, Amy Krist, and
Katie Wagner), or the University of Central Arkansas (Dr. Hal Halvorson).

All PIs on the project are happy to field inquiries about individual
positions and we encourage you to contact us. General questions about the
project can be directed to: stoich.hiring at gmail.com. To apply, please 1)
