The Environmental Resilience Institute (ERI) at Indiana University (IU) invites applications for a Research Fellow to study patterns of animal movements to begin in Fall 2018; the appointment is renewable for up to four years. Applicants with interests in causes and consequences of animal movements and geographic distributions are especially encouraged to apply, as are individuals whose research goals relate to understanding the role of animal movements in disease ecology and
conservation biology. Fellows will enjoy a generous research allowance, a rich collaborative environment, and eligibility to serve as PI on external grants.

The position is part of IU's Prepared for Environmental Change Grand
Challenge initiative (http://grandchallenges.iu.edu/p4ec). With a
primary appointment in the ERI, the successful candidate will join a
cohort of twelve Fellows of the ERI and a growing community of
colleagues across the sciences, social sciences, and humanities who are
engaged in this collaborative program of research and communication
about environmental change. Formal affiliation with relevant
department(s) and school(s) will be arranged on a case-by-case basis.
Excellent fellow candidates will have experience with and openness
toward multi-and trans-disciplinary collaborative research.

Applicants must have a Ph.D. prior to employment along with
demonstrated research experience in movement ecology; applicants with
prior post-doctoral training will be favored in the review process.
Fellows will be expected to develop independent research programs that
interface with ERI's multidisciplinary initiative. Appointment will
be for two years initially, with opportunity for renewal for an
additional two years. While the position is not permanent, Fellows are
encouraged to extend the appointment period through external funding.

Applications should be submitted by 12/1/2017 to ensure full
