The Echinacea Project seeks research technicians and a team leader to contribute to our long-term research on plant ecology, genetics, and prairie conservation. Work with our team outside all summer in prairie remnants and prairie restorations! We investigate how habitat fragmentation influences individual fitness, population demographics, plant-insect interactions, and evolution in plants, especially the purple coneflower, Echinacea angustifolia. Please apply if you are interested in plant population biology, evolution, quantitative genetics, pollination biology, restoration ecology, or conservation biology. We want one person with R and data management skills. Everyone will gain field research experience. Read more here: https://echinaceaproject.org/
