The Department of Botany and Plant Sciences invites applications for a
faculty position in plant evolutionary developmental biology
("evo-devo"). This is a 9-month, tenure-track position at the Assistant
or Associate level. The successful candidate is expected to work at the
interface between modern developmental, phylogenetic, and evolutionary
plant biology. He/she will join an active and collegial department with
broad interests in plant biology. The individual will be expected to
establish and maintain an independent, vigorous, innovative research
program, teach at the undergraduate and graduate level in the areas of
evolutionary developmental biology, plant systematics, or developmental
anatomy/morphology to complement the Department's existing strength in
cell and developmental biology, and participate in departmental and
interdepartmental undergraduate and graduate programs.
The position includes an appointment in the Agricultural Experiment
Station and will be available July 1, 2012. Applicants must hold a Ph.D.
and postdoctoral experience is essential for candidates at the

the position is filled. Interested individuals should submit 1) a
curriculum vitae, 2) a statement of research and teaching interests, and
3) have three letters of recommendation sent to:
