The Rice Lab in the Department of Biological Sciences at Lehigh University
> is recruiting a PhD student to start Fall 2020.
>
> The Rice Lab studies hybridization and reproductive isolation in
> black-capped and Carolina chickadees. Projects with opportunities for
> graduate student involvement include our work on how cognition may
> contribute to selection against hybrids; and research on how local
> adaptation to climate can contribute to genetic incompatibilities
> and hybrid breakdown. Our research is collaborative and funded by
> NSF. Students will have the opportunity to interact with collaborators
> from several U.S.  colleges and universities.
