The successful candidate will participate in the introductory biology sequence, will teach upper-level courses in comparative anatomy, evolution, and/or other advanced topics, and may contribute to the college’s interdisciplinary programs. We expect a vigorous research program that involves undergraduate students, leads to publications, and has the potential to attract extramural funding.
