About the Opportunity The Roopnarine Paleontology Lab at the California Academy of Sciences seeks an exceptional Post-Doctoral Research Associate with expertise in quantitative paleoecology. The applicant will join a new NSF-funded research project to address whether communities at certain times in the past, specifically during and immediately after mass extinctions, may have been structured and functioned differently from communities during more environmentally quiescent times. Food webs have emerged as a paleontologically accessible type of interspecific network, yet their reconstruction remains methodologically challenging. Reconstruction relies on modeling approaches to infer interspecific interactions, all of which operate under a uniformitarian assumption that the principles determining interspecific interactions have remained constant through time. We challenge that uniformitarian assumption by proposing a framework within which to test alternative principles of inferred species properties, particularly following extreme ecological disturbances, offering new insight into paleocommunity structure and function. We will examine late Permian and Early Triassic communities from South China and the northwestern United states, testing both uniformitarian and alternative models. Test systems include boundary- and mass extinction-spanning communities, as well as communities that represent early stages of recovery from the Permian-Triassic mass extinction. Work will consist of paleocommunity reconstructions, model building and execution, and analytical methods development. The postdoctoral researcher will be involved in all project activities, including field work in China and the United States, travel to and presentation at professional meetings, and publication of project results. They will also assist with collections curation and digitization, project coordination, communication, outreach activities, and formal/informal education. The researcher will be co-mentored by Peter Roopnarine (California Academy of Sciences) and project co-PI Ashley Dineen (University of California Museum of Paleontology, Berkeley), and will have the opportunity to interact with both institutions.

Description of Population Served Para Los Niños' Mental Health Services Program works to address the mental health needs of children, ages 0-21, and their families in Service Planning Area 4 of Los Angeles (Skid Row, Downtown, Pico-Union, Boyle Heights, and Ramona Gardens Projects). We are the area's only mental health services provider for children in this area. 100% percent of the children and families we serve come from very low-income households, with the majority of them living 250% below federal poverty guidelines. The current median income of our families is $11,500 for an average household size of 3-6 people, less than five times the California average. 95% of our clients are Latino; 5% are African-American. 87.5% of the children's caretakers read little to no English. Of the children we serve, 18.2% are five years old or under; 52.2% are 6-10 years old; 25.2% are 11-15 years old; 4.4% are 16-20 years old. Position Overview Mental Health: Clinical track within MH that entails a specialization in working with children ages birth to five years old and their parent(s). Student receives training in Los Angeles County Department of Mental Health documentation and will carry a small caseload of children in the Mental Health Department. Student will also be placed part of their time in our Early Education program providing assessment, observation and services to children in Head Start /Early Head Start. Other training opportunities include collaboration and support to teachers in the classroom and participation in monthly Multi-Disciplinary Team meetings. Student will also have the opportunity to train in an evidenced based approach known as Nurturing Parenting. Available Internship Days and Times This internship is a 20 hours a week commitment. Internship days and times are flexible and depend on the specific track. However, Wednesdays are a mandatory training day as this is the day of the week in which staff meetings, trainings and group supervision take place on a weekly basis (9am-3pm). The primary start date for training is the first Wednesday after Labor Day. However, there are several slots available to start in June for the Mental Health track. There will be a 2 day orientation that will take place at the end of August in order to help the students with onboarding activities. This 2 day orientation is necessary in order to ensure students have completed activities that will support their beginning their clinical training. It should also be noted that the first two weeks of training in September, most trainings are scheduled to take place on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Attendance to these training days is required unless prior arrangements have been discussed with the respective training supervisor. Special Requirements: (ie: livescan , TB clearance, training days prior experience) We require that all students pass a livescan, drug screening and TB test. Agency wide trainings are also required (topics on trauma informed treatment, child abuse reporting, CPR / First Aide, etc..).

Supervision: Students receive 1 hour of individual and 2 hours of group supervision weekly. Both individual and group supervision is done in person. Group supervision consists of no more than 8 students. Students present cases each week in a structured presentation format to facilitate this area of their professional development. Meetings with Preceptors / Mentors: Students are assigned a preceptor / mentor at the beginning of the training year. This preceptor / mentor is a seasoned clinician who will essentially be available to support the student as they learn their role in providing services. For the students who are in the Mental Health Track, this preceptor / mentor will have the student shadow them in doing an intake assessment of the student's first client. The preceptor / mentor will then shadow the student as they administer the intake assessment of their second client. Trainings: Students participate in weekly and bi-monthly trainings. Trainings take place on Wednesdays from 10am-12pm. Once to twice a month (1st and 3rd Wednesday) we hold trainings on various topics that support the work with children and families. Various topics that have been presented previously include crisis intervention, compassion fatigue, perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, attachment, brain development, Relationship Based Approach, art therapy and sensory processing disorders.
