Graduate Students
The Vitousek Lab is seeking Ph.D. students! We combine mechanistic, developmental, functional, and evolutionary approaches to address how organisms respond to their environments. Prospective students interested in stress, phenotypic flexibility, and the relationships between behavior and physiology are particularly encouraged to apply. I am especially interested in students who would like to develop independent research projects using one of the model systems we are currently developing: tree swallows (which can include comparative work at established study sites throughout the continental US and Alaska) and crickets.
Please contact me in advance of the application deadline (Dec 1). In your email please include a cover letter that describes your interests and why they are a good fit with the lab, and a CV with relevant experience, GRE scores, and the names of references.
