Ayudante Graduado: Doctorado (PhD) o maestría (MS) en sistemática molecular y taxonomía en Los Estados Unidos. (An English version follows below)
Dos años de beca, con continuación pendiente de logro (como ayudante de investigador o enseñanza) están disponibles para un proyecto de doctorado (PhD) o maestría (MS) sobre la sistemática molecular y la taxonomía de chicharras/cigarras (Cicadidae: Hemiptera: Insecta) en el laboratorio del Dr. Chris Simon. El estudiante será aconsejado por departe de dos taxonomistas expertos de chicharras, el Dr. Allen Sanborn y el Dr. Max Moulds. La beca incluye fondos para las provisiones y excursiones a varias partes del mundo. Estamos particularmente interesados en estudiantes que deseen trabajar en la biota de países Latino Americanos o de Australia. Para averiguar si la sistemática le interesaría, tome el concurso para la carrera de la sistemática, localizado en: http://systbio.org/?q=node/139
Esta beca para graduados esta patrocinada por una concesión del National Science Foundation PEET (asociaciones para realizar maestría en taxonomía) escrito por Jason Cryan, Chris Dietrich, y Chris Simon. El candidato elegido será parte de un equipo grande de investigadores trabajando en la taxonomía de Auchenorrhyncha (chicharras, tolvas de la planta, tolvas del árbol, gusanos salivadores y sus aliados) y se hará miembro del departamento de ecología y biología evolutiva (EEB) de la
universidad de Connecticut (UCONN), de Storrs. http://hydrodictyon.eeb.uconn.edu/department/about.php y

-------------------
Two years of graduate research fellowship with continuation based on achievement (as either a research or teaching assistantship) are available for a PhD or Master's level project on the molecular systematics and taxonomy of cicadas in the laboratory of Dr. Chris Simon. The student will be co-advised by experienced cicada taxonomists, Dr. Allen Sanborn and Dr. Max Moulds. The fellowship includes funds for supplies and field trips to various parts of the world. We are particularly interested in students who wish to work on Latin American or Australia biota. Unsure of whether systematics is for you? Take the systematics career quiz located at: http://systbio.org/?q=node/139
This graduate fellowship is sponsored by a National Science Foundation
PEET Award (Partnerships to Enhance Expertise in Taxonomy) co-authored by Jason Cryan, Chris Dietrich, and Chris Simon. The successful applicant will join a large team of researchers working on the taxonomy of Auchenorrhyncha (cicadas, plant hoppers, tree hoppers, spittlebugs and allies) and become a member of the Ecology and Evolutionary Biology (EEB) Department at the University of Connecticut (UCONN) Storrs http://hydrodictyon.eeb.uconn.edu/department/about.php and http://hydrodictyon.eeb.uconn.edu/department/prospectivegrads/gradapply.php
The UCONN EEB department has a strong emphasis on systematics with eight of twenty six faculty members having a primary interest is in systematics and seven others using systematics as part of their research program. Systematics expertise includes theory, tree building, molecular methods, character evolution, evolution of development, speciation, biodiversity, and biogeography. A weekly Systematics Discussion Group is held each semester.
The Simon lab is a friendly and active mixture of grad students, postdocs and undergrads working in molecular systematics, taxonomy and evolution. Link to our web pages via www.eeb.uconn.edu/faculty/simon/simon.htm
Joint Auchenorrhyncha PEET workshops held at the NY State Museum will focus on automated tools for managing and
providing Internet access to taxonomic data, nomenclatural issues, understanding morphological characters, illustration techniques, diversity of Auchenrrhyncha, molecular systematics laboratory methods, and new theoretical and methodological developments in systematics.
UCONN www.uconn.edu is situated in a rural environment with rolling hills, rivers, streams,forests, & farms with several major cites within a 1.5 to 2.5 hour drive. The state of Connecticut provides excellent health benefits for graduate students.
