Post Doctoral Fellow Ex/In Situ Louisiana Pinesnake Conservation (Full Time)
Research Associate Job 7 miles from West Memphis
Memphis Zoological Society Post Doctoral Fellow Ex/In Situ Louisiana Pinesnake Conservation (Full Time) The Memphis Zoo is seeking a highly qualified individual for a 2-year Research Fellowship for a collaborative project to assist in the recovery of the federally Threatened Louisiana pinesnake. In 2010, the Memphis Zoo joined forces with the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, U.S. Forest Service, and Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries to release zoo-bred Louisiana pinesnakes onto restored habitat. The USFWS has provided funding to implement two Recovery Plan Actions: refine and implement technologies for propagating the Louisiana pinesnake in captivity, and to assist with efforts to transmit genetic material between wild and captive populations to increase the genetic variability of the captive population, which is based on relatively few founders.
The purpose of the Post-Doctoral Fellowship is to broaden the Memphis Zoo's progress towards its top-tier wildlife conservation priorities. The Fellow's responsibility is to develop new research projects and nurture existing conservation-oriented partnerships within the current framework of funded USFWS Recovery Grant Proposal objectives- that include activities in physiology, molecular, disease, and field ecology research techniques to foster and improve Louisiana pinesnake population recovery in the wild.
In collaboration, with the Senior Conservation Scientist, the Research Fellow will coordinate and collaborate with partners at LPS breeding facilities at 4 zoological institutions, Threatened-Endangered Species Research Team (TES), US Army Corps of Engineers Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC), and the Collaborative Conservation Genomics Lab (CCGL) at the University of Illinois, to develop radio telemetry, behavior, and physiology monitoring research to understand zoo-bred reintroduced snake movement patterns, habitat use, acclimation and survival. The Fellow will also support ongoing disease monitoring and molecular testing of Snake Fungal Disease (SFD) and Cryptosporidium that threaten snake health; genetic research developing genomic lineage data of the captive assurance colony and wild populations; and reproductive research using assisted reproductive technologies to infuse wild genetics into the captive population. The zoo population of pinesnakes, held by four facilities including the Memphis Zoo, will be used to develop and test new techniques, which will then be applied in the field. The technologies must be effective and practical in the field, and this may require the development and testing of novel methodologies. This position includes a research budget, travel to field sites partner institutions, conferences, and numerous professional development opportunities.
Application Deadline: Closing date for applications is December 28, 2024. Review of applications will begin immediately and will be ongoing until position is filled.
Start Date: Immediate, Negotiable, preferred by Feb 2025.
The successful candidate will be expected to:

* Successfully pursue networking opportunities and collaborations with universities and partnering Institutions.
* Secure external funding to augment internal research funds.
* Engage in media, development, and public speaking opportunities.
* Mentor, nurture, and develop research capacity in students, interns, and technicians.
