About this position
The Ohio State University is seeking a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Department of Evolution, Ecology, and Organismal Biology within the College of Arts and Sciences.
The scholar will collaborate with partners from the Upper Colorado River Endangered Fish Recovery Program and the U.S. Geological Survey on conservation research focused on invasive smallmouth bass. The project will develop and apply population simulation models to assess how movement and removal strategies influence invasive smallmouth bass population dynamics.
Research activities will include adapting existing population models, running simulations, interpreting the management implications of model results, presenting findings to resource managers, and preparing technical reports and peer-reviewed publications. The position combines quantitative population modeling with aquatic ecology, invasive species management, fish conservation, and applied biological research.
The scholar will work in an interdisciplinary research environment connected to university scientists, federal partners, and regional endangered-fish recovery efforts. The Department of Evolution, Ecology, and Organismal Biology is part of Ohio State’s College of Arts and Sciences, a major academic and research community with extensive departmental and research-center resources.
