Possible research topics include (but are not limited to): how organisms resist or recover from stress or environmental perturbation; mechanisms of plasticity; the role of behavior in fostering resilience; the impacts of organismal resilience scale across levels of biological organization; the role species interactions play in resilience; how resilience mechanisms enable organisms, populations, and communities to respond adaptively to human-induced changes; and how resilience mechanisms evolve and how they impact evolution. Studies in organisms may include animals, plants, and microbes. Responsibilities
Teach one course each semester. Build and maintain an active research portfolio and secure funding from various external sponsors.
