STILL have not filled a non-renewable 1-year full time position at $70k to teach 5 courses next year. I am a bit desperate. We could fill the position with a primatologist willing to teach intro Life of Primates and upper level Primate Nutritional Ecology jobs.rutgers.edu/postings/20…

We integrated skeletal and aDNA data for 167 individuals to understand health across the shift to farming, representing a snapshot of this dynamic and nuanced process (pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.21…). The project was a team effort and I’m fortunate to have worked with awesome people!
