If you have questions about the Finnegan Lab, the UCMP, or the Department of Integrative Biology, please feel free to contact me.  In a given application cycle I may or may not be in position to consider new applicants to the Ph.D program, so please reach out to me before submitting an application. Note that our application deadline is December 1, earlier than many other Ph.D programs.

I am often searching for postdoctoral researchers with expertise in one or more of the following areas: (1) Stable isotope biogeochemistry, particularly as applied to marine fossils and sediments, (2) Marine paleoecology, macroecology and/or niche modeling, (3) Macroevolutionary dynamics. Candidates should have a Ph.D awarded in the past 4 years, a demonstrated ability to initiate and lead collaborative research projects, and a strong publication record. Field experience with marine fossils, sediments, and/or sedimentary rocks is preferred but not essential depending on the area of expertise. Interested candidates who fit this description should contact me.
