The chemistry of fear – indirect effects of predation in aquatic ecosystems The overall goal of the PhD project is to gain new insights to the mechanisms and consequences of sensing and signaling in predator-prey interactions in aquatic foodwebs. Prey organisms sense predators by chemical cues and respond by launching defensive traits such as vertical… View Article

We are seeking a postdoctoral fellow to work on an NSF-funded project investigating the chemical and biological diversity of benthic dinoflagellates in coral reef ecosystems.  Specifically, the work focuses on the diversity of marine benthic dinoflagellate communities and their corresponding metabolome, with the goal of understanding interactions that link to toxin production and ciguatera poisoning.
