The DeWalt and Ickes labs in the Department of Biological Sciences at
Clemson University are recruiting doctoral students to study tropical
plant ecology on the island of Dominica in the Lesser Antilles. Research
in our labs includes invasion biology, community ecology, population
ecology, restoration ecology, and plant-animal interactions. Annual
stipends of $17,000-$30,000, depending on student qualifications, are
guaranteed for 5 years through a combination of teaching and research
assistantships. Stipends on the higher end are available for students
beginning in January or June 2008.
