Hello all,
I have openings for 1 MS student in my laboratory starting Sept 2003 or Jan
2004. Student research will focus on the biogeography and systematics of
endemic freshwater red algae to Australasia. The project would be a
combination of DNA sequencing and morphological analyses. A collecting
trip to New Zealand/Tasmania is planned for Dec 2003.
Our department (Environmental & Plant Biology;
http://www.plantbio.ohiou.edu/ ) has a very strong tradition in teaching of
Botany. A MS student will take courses that will allow him/her to be
broadly trained in plant biology. A research focus area within the
department is Phylogenetic Systematics which can be found at
http://www.plantbio.ohiou.edu/epb/faculty/research/phyl_sysindex.htm.
The students will be funded in part by a Research Assistant position and
the other portion by a Teaching Assistant. The anticipated 2003/2004
academic year stipend for a MS student is $13,830 and includes a tuition
waiver. More information about graduate studies within our department can
be found at http://www.plantbio.ohiou.edu/epb/grad/graduate.htm
Information about myself, my current students and past students can be
found at the following website:

Please contact me directly via email (vis-chia at ohio.edu) if you are
interested in pursuing graduate research in my laboratory and/or have any
questions.
Cheers, Morgan Vis
