About this position

Postdoctoral Fellow in Solitary Bee Pesticide Toxicity and Risk Assessment at Utah State University

This postdoctoral opportunity is based at Utah State University in Logan, Utah, with collaboration from the USDA Agricultural Research Service and Washington State University. The project focuses on toxicology, entomology, environmental chemistry, pesticide risk assessment, and bee health, especially in relation to solitary bees.

The postdoc will work with Dr. Kimberly Hageman (Utah State University), Dr. Kelsey Graham (USDA ARS), and collaborators including Dr. Douglas Walsh at Washington State University. Research activities include developing standardized methods for quantitative pesticide risk assessments, measuring lethal and sub-lethal toxicity endpoints, conducting experiments on two solitary bee species (alfalfa leafcutting bee and alkali bee), and leading semi-field studies to evaluate higher-tier pesticide exposure risks.
