The Section of Ecology, Behavior and Evolution in the Division of Biological Sciences (www.biology.ucsd.edu) invites applications for a faculty position in Microbial Ecology at the tenure-track Assistant Professor level. We are broadly searching for a microbial ecologist. Research topics could include, but are not limited to, soil microbial community structure and function, plant-microbe interactions, and the role of microbiomes in species interactions in nature. This position will complement existing strengths in this area.

All candidates must have earned a Ph.D. or equivalent degree, and be committed to teaching at the undergraduate and graduate levels. In addition to excellence and creativity in research and scholarship, successful candidates must also demonstrate a commitment to equity and inclusion in higher education.
