POSTDOC OPPORTUNITIES:
Postdocs in the Johansen Fish Resilience Lab lab are generally funded from their own grants or my research grants. There are a number of postdoctoral funding opportunities available for US and international applicants to work in our lab including the Ford Foundation fellowship (for underrepresented groups), NSF (e.g., Ocean Sciences Postdoc or other), Smith, Life Science Research Foundation, Fulbright (for non-US citizens and US citizens), L’Oréal (for women), or the European Marie-Curie, and EMBO (for European citizens). There is also the NOAA Climate and Global Change (C&CC) Postdoctoral Program open to US and international applicants.
Other useful lists of funding sources are maintained by the Baskett Lab, Pathways to Science, the ecology and evolution community, and Dieter Lukas and colleagues (also see their Google Doc). If you are interested in joining our lab and have a strong proposal idea for, or have already been awarded, a postdoctoral fellowship, please contact me. I am also happy to work with strong candidates to develop competitive proposals for suitable programs; please contact me if interested.
STUDENT OPPORTUNITIES:
We are not accepting any further MSc or PhD applications for 2025 or 2026. We may accept new PhD applications for the 2027 cohort, but please note that at present, we are only accepting graduate students that come with their own funding . Good options for nationally competitive graduate fellowships include the Ford Predoctoral Fellowship, NSF GRFP, NDSEG, NOAA Nancy Foster, NASA FINESST, NMFS-Sea Grant Joint Fellowship Program. and UH’s Hauʻoli Mau Loa Graduate Fellowship (for Hawaiian M.Sc. candidates). Please feel free to present yourself and your research interests via email. In your email, please include two attachments: 1) A written statement (~1 page) that details a) your research interests/ideas, b) your past research experience, c) your idealized goal after completing a graduate degree, and d) why you want to work in our lab; and 2) A CV (including research skills, scientific publications, and critical certifications such as diving, boating), including names and contact information of three references. If there is strong synergy, we will gladly work with you on your funding proposal. The UH application deadline is usually around October of each year, so get in touch early (Mar-May) if you believe you may be a good fit for our lab. Due to the number of emails we receive, queries without those 2 attachments will not be answered.
Please keep an eye on this web page for additional exciting upcoming opportunities in our lab.
