Derek,
I think that I need to reiterate that BISON made a COA to PIERC for
BISON data activities. I leave it to PIERC to figure out how to do
that. They accepted the COA and agreed to the deliverables. Please
keep the conversation in that context.
Cheers,
Stinger

> PhD position
>
> We are looking for a full-time PhD student to conduct research in
> nematology, which should lead to a Ph.D. degree in Science. The
> successful candidate will receive a scholarship from Ghent
> University for a period of 48 months with starting date October 1 or
> 31 (depending on the candidate), 2012. The general research theme
> includes taxonomy and evolution of plant-parasitic nematodes. The
> candidate will work in a dynamic international research environment .
>
>
> The first objective of this project is to provide a more
> comprehensive description of nematode biodiversity, based on an
> efficient combined acquisition of data, including molecular,
> morphological, biogeographical, ecological, and parasitic data, with
> a focus on material from developing countries that is largely
> unexplored or only fractionally studied (e.g., only morphological
> analysis).
> The second goal focuses on the analysis of the data in a
> phylogenetic framework. This opens up different opportunities, such
> as (1) an estimation of historical processes of evolution
> (especially evolution of parasitism) associated with our observed
> data, simultaneously with an estimation of the phylogenetic tree;
> (2) improved insight into biogeographical patterns; (3) more-focused
> studies on character analysis and homology; (4) the use of
> morphology and molecules in species delimitation and identification;
> and (5) providing insight into the extent that single sequences can
> serve as proxies for functional entities.
>
>
> Profile
> Candidates should hold a Master degree before the starting date of
> the position and have a strong interest in taxonomy and phylogeny.
>
>
> Apply
> Please send your detailed c.v. to wim.bert at UGent before September 1, 2012.
