A NEW POSITION HAS BEEN CREATED =
AT THE WILDLIFE CONSERVATION SOCIETY'S =
OSBORN LABORATORIES OF MARINE SCIENCES
POST DOCTORAL FELLOW IN CORAL BIOLOGY & ECOLOGY
The Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS), was founded in 1895 as the New Y=
ork Zoological Society. WCS now manages over 250 wildlife conservation p=
rojects in over 52 countries. In New York City, WCS operates the Bronx Z=
oo, the New York Aquarium, the Osborn Laboratories of Marine Sciences, an=
d the Central Park, Prospect Park, and Queens Wildlife Centers. WCS also=
manages the St. Catherine's Island Wildlife Survival Center, a facility =
for studying and breeding endangered species located off the Georgia coas=
t. =
The mission of WCS's Osborn Laboratories of Marine Sciences (OLMS) is com=
pletely devoted to conservation research. OLMS research programs focus o=
n: 1. Fisheries (improved quantitative assessment and fishery analysis, b=
ycatch, coastal sharks & migratory fishes, and international artisanal & =
freshwater fisheries); 2. Coral Ecosystems (coral aquaculture & basic bio=
logy, coral ecosystem ecology, and coral microbiology & parasitology); 3.=
Coastal Ecosystems (environmental biology & assessment); and, 4. Aquacul=
ture Technology (new technologies for advancing capabilities for culturin=
g and studying aquatic species and habitats).
WCS has a long history of field-based research and conservation in the ma=
rine environment, including projects in Belize and Kenya on corals and re=
ef management and the effects of fishing on reef ecosystems, and many pro=
jects on marine mammals particularly in Argentina and Peru related to gro=
wing conflicts with local fisheries. Concurrently, the development of a =
coral research and aquaculture facility in the Osborn Labs has expanded W=
CS's capabilities for basic, quantitative research on the effects of envi=
ronmental change and specific human impacts on corals as well as on coral=
diseases.
As an important part of the OLMS conservation research program, WCS is se=
eking to fill a new position: Post Doctoral Research Fellow in Coral Biol=
ogy & Ecology. This position will help develop the coral research program=
using laboratory-based research to support conservation efforts.
The Post Doc in Coral Biology & Ecology will report to the Director of th=
e Coral Laboratory, and will directly coordinate and supervise the Coral =
Laboratory Assistant Research Technician and Graduate Students. The succ=
essful candidate will: conduct laboratory and field research in coral ree=
f biology; publish scientific research conducted in the laboratory and th=
e field; assist in identifying, attracting, and acquiring both short- and=
long-term funding necessary to implement the development of coral reef r=
esearch and conservation programs; provide technical support for WCS's ma=
rine policy initiatives; and, participate in and represent WCS at scienti=
fic conferences. Qualifications: Ph.D. in marine ecology, marine biolog=
y or closely related field, strong background experience in coral researc=
h, propagation of marine organisms, and a demonstrated publication capabi=
lity with strong interpersonal, presentation, and team skills. =
Please send curriculum vitae, a summary statement of your =
research and conservation interests, and references to: Dr. Paul J. Boyle=
, Director, Osborn Laboratories of Marine Sciences, New York Aquarium, Bo=
ardwalk & West 8th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11224, or to pboyle@idt.net .
The Wildlife Conservation Society is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
