paleonet [Fwd: Field Museum arthropod curator search]



*Curator/Division of Insects
Field Museum of Natural History

The Department of Zoology of the Field Museum seeks a scientist with
research programs focused on arthropods to fill a career-track
appointment at the Assistant Curator level. Candidates should have a
Ph.D. and a proven record of scientific achievement in
collections-based research.  Beyond taxonomic focus, we are searching
broadly for excellence in evolutionary biology in such areas as
phylogenetics, comparative morphology, molecular biology,
development, biogeography, co-evolution, and conservation.

In addition to research, responsibilities include curation of
globally important collections in the Division of Insects,
participation in public exhibit and education programs, and
administration. Strong relationships with local universities provide
opportunities for participation in graduate and undergraduate
training and teaching. Applications should include:  (1) a Curriculum
Vitae; (2) a statement of research and curatorial interests; (3)
names and contact information of three referees; and (4) copies of up
to 5 relevant publications. Review of applications will begin January
5, 2007. Send materials to:  Search Committee, Department of Zoology,
Field Museum, 1400 South Lake Shore Drive, Chicago, IL  60605-2496, USA.

Application materials as e-mail attachments preferred (receipt will
be acknowledged).
