Host-parasite interactions University of Arizona in United States

PhD position in disease ecology with the McNew Lab at University of Arizona ???? The McNew Lab at the University of Arizona is recruiting PhD students in disease ecology to start in Fall of 2025. We seek prospective students with experience working with birds, parasites, or Neotropical biology. We particularly encourage candidates who speak Spanish and/or who are from backgrounds poorly represented in Biology to apply. We will evaluate candidates based on overlap in research interests, shared values, and readiness to carry out a long-term, independent research project. Students will develop projects on host-parasite interactions in either our Galapagos Island or Sonoran Desert systems. The McNew Lab is in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology located in Tucson, AZ. Students in EEB have 5 years of guaranteed support through TAships and opportunities to apply for independent fellowships. Tucson is a multicultural, livable city with excellent opportunities for outdoor recreation, birding, and plenty of sunshine.
