We use cutting-edge research tools, such as quantitative behavioral tracking, laser vibrometry, and electrophysiology, to investigate auditory perception in the acoustic parasitoid fly Ormia ochracea, which relies on their sense of hearing to locate field cricket hosts by eavesdropping on cricket calling songs. This position offers a unique opportunity to collaborate with a PI distinctly committed to your technical and conceptual training, and career development. It is an excellent opportunity for candidates seeking additional training in behavioral neuroscience prior to applying for graduate school programs. This is a two-year, grant-funded, benefits eligible position. *What You=E2=80=99ll Do: * - Elucidate cricket song features that Ormia ochracea evaluate for host species recognition - Characterize the neural circuits involved in song temporal pattern recognition - Investigate how neural circuits integrate sensory information for song recognition with information for sound localization to result in locatin= g appropriate host crickets - Conduct fieldwork at several field sites in the southern United States and in Hawaii - Data collection, analyses, and contributing to the communication of results - Complete lab maintenance tasks required to maintain laboratory colonies of Ormia ochracea *Who You Are:* *The qualified candidate will have=E2=80=A6* - Bachelor=E2=80=99s degree in Biology, Neuroscience, or a relevant quanti= tative field prior to the start date - Ability to commit to this position for a two-year period *It will be helpful if you have=E2=80=A6* - Comfort with handling insects (crickets and flies) - Ability to drive and travel to field sites *Who We Are:* At St. Olaf College we are dedicated to creating an inclusive and globally engaged community.
