Deadline April 15th

BOWEN LAB, Marine Science Center, Northeastern University REU POSITION AVAILABLE
The Bowen lab focuses on how the structure and function of microbial communities are affected by human activities as well as how microbial communities alter their environment, from whole ecosystems like salt marshes to oysters, lobsters and plants. You can learn more about our research here:
https://www.northeastern.edu/bowen_lab/<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__okstate.us15.list-2Dmanage2.com_track_click-3Fu-3D472af31fbfefb5f3c2efc8a0f-26id-3Daa4fd46056-26e-3D137cc60251&d=DwMFaQ&c=qKdtBuuu6dQK9MsRUVJ2DPXW6oayO8fu4TfEHS8sGNk&r=D4ieWpPrD6avsGzciOTo5gIMmpKWC6tTjt9yoDlAPLg&m=-oY0vAii_1FXD--sntalZj9pcwfqVvkX0-TFbTqkvDE&s=TW8hghjvzCzo9H7UKpRaDRcKdXU1UvNGwfFDNjF7xiw&e=>
...
We are hiring one REU student for the summer to work on a project focused on salt marsh nutrient cycling. The REU will be trained in both molecular and biogeochemical techniques. Two possible projects for the REU to tackle include, though we are also happy to consider other project ideas that facilitate the student’s interests:
1) investigate the effects of sulfide on nitrate reduction pathways and microbial communities involved in these pathways in salt marsh sediments.
2) investigate the response of salt marsh fungal communities to nitrate addition.
The REU duration is 10 weeks, but timing is flexible. The student will be based at Northeastern University’s Marine Science Center in Nahant, MA. Public transportation from Northeastern Main Campus is available by shuttle (departs 9 AM, returns 5 PM) or students can drive to Nahant directly. Work outside of those windows of time will be necessary so having independent transportation, while not imperative, is desirable. The position comes with a $5000 stipend and $1500 to cover the cost of research.
We are particularly interested in mentoring students who are looking to pursue graduate education in the fields of ecology or environmental science, that have excelled in coursework at their home institution, and have expressed interest in academic research. Priority will be given to underrepresented and/or first-generation college students from under-resourced families and communities. If you are interested in applying for this position please send a resume, unofficial copies of your transcript, and a cover letter that describes your research interest and experience, and your future goals, along with the names and contact information for two letters of reference to Jennifer Bowen at [log in to unmask] by April 15, 2017.

Deadline April 21st
UC Santa Barbara

A (REU) summer fellowship is open for one student at the Marine Science Institute, University of California Santa Barbara. Duration is 12 weeks, June 3-Aug 29, although these dates can be somewhat flexible to accommodate academic schedules. We invite applications from qualified, highly motivated undergraduate students from U.S. colleges/universities to participate in a 12-week lab and field based summer research experience. U.S. citizenship is required. The student will be in...volved with an NSF-funded project on the transport of drifting kelp from coastal kelp forests to sandy beaches where it washes up as wrack. The main objective of the project is evaluate how variation in kelp wrack input affects patterns and processes in beach ecosystems and to develop a quantitative understanding of trophic connectivity through physical transport and input of drift kelp from kelp forests to sandy beaches. The student will learn ecological and/or physical oceanographic methods to explore this topic, and will be required to write a report, in the format of a scientific paper, and give a presentation on their project at the end of the summer. Travel costs to and from UCSB will be covered, and the student will be provided with a weekly stipend for living expenses. This is a full-time commitment and any work or educational activities outside the program must be approved.
Eligibility
You are eligible if you are an undergraduate student who has completed at least two years of study towards a bachelor's degree in a related topic (including biology, ecology, or physics), and you will still be an undergraduate in the fall after the summer program. Students from underrepresented groups and institutions with limited research opportunities are especially encouraged to apply. Experience with scientific diving is desirable but not required. Applicants must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents of the U.S. and its possessions. The University of California is an equal opportunity employer and educator.
Application
Interested applicants should send a statement of interest, resume, unofficial transcript, one letter of recommendation, and contact information for one additional reference.

UChicago Physics Ph.D. Bridge Program: Applications Due May 1
________________________________
The Department of Physics at the University of Chicago offers a one- or two-year bridge experience to a few select students each year. Bridge students have full standing as graduate students in our Ph.D. program and will receive a full financial support package. If you are a US citizen or Permanent Resident and have completed, or are about to complete, a Bachelor's degree (preferably but not necessarily in physics or a closely related field), and believe that you have the aptitude and commitment to achieve a Ph.D. in physics, but if

  *   you feel that your background in physics is not sufficient to begin a doctoral program,
or
  *   you feel that there are significant gaps in your knowledge or experience that should be filled to prepare you for Ph.D. work, or
  *   you feel that you can greatly benefit by some guidance and mentoring before pursuing Ph.D. level studies, or
  *   you were not successful in gaining admission into a doctoral program,
then you are an excellent candidate. Members of under-represented minority groups are especially encouraged to apply. GRE scores are not required, there is no application fee. The application is available at https://apply-psd.uchicago.edu/apply/<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__okstate.us15.list-2Dmanage.com_track_click-3Fu-3D472af31fbfefb5f3c2efc8a0f-26id-3D78f14da78c-26e-3D137cc60251&d=DwMFaQ&c=qKdtBuuu6dQK9MsRUVJ2DPXW6oayO8fu4TfEHS8sGNk&r=D4ieWpPrD6avsGzciOTo5gIMmpKWC6tTjt9yoDlAPLg&m=-oY0vAii_1FXD--sntalZj9pcwfqVvkX0-TFbTqkvDE&s=K4UxAtXle6NmFUR_f2Cw-DofOf1tq5L3RRINFKykNqE&e=> and the application deadline is May 1, 2017.

Opportunity to participate in GOLD - Sparks for Change program
________________________________
Purpose: Sparks for Change is a new program funded under the NSF Geoscience Opportunities for Leadership in Diversity (GOLD) initiative. It focuses on supporting the career progression and improving the retention of underrepresented faculty in the geosciences by improving departmental culture towards inclusion and broadening participation. We utilize a small group approach (triads), with groups comprised of junior underrepresented minority faculty, more senior partners in the same departments, and experienced broadening participation experts, to identify challenges and create department-specific plans to instigate departmental culture change.

Audience: Early career minority faculty members in the geosciences who are looking to maximize their broadening impacts efforts, senior faculty members who has hired a minority faculty and wants to support and retain them.

Program details: Sparks for Change is centered on a three-day workshop, to be held September 18-20, 2017 in Boulder CO. This workshop will bring together 10 triads from different institutions to build a network of scholars focused on broadening participation in the geosciences and provide faculty with the leadership skills necessary to lead departmental culture change. Each triad will be supported in developing and enacting individualized plans for driving change in their own department. Travel, accommodation, meals and local costs will be covered by the program.
