UMass Amherst invites applications for a Research Scientist in Conservation Biology. We seek a motivated researcher to contribute to our efforts in turtle conservation. The selected candidate will develop a population matrix model and population viability analysis to inform decision-making on the release of confiscated turtles into the wild.
The project involves working closely with state and federal agencies to understand the risks associated with releasing these turtles and developing strategies to mitigate those risks. A strong background in ecology, conservation biology, or herpetology, as well as experience with statistical modelling and data analysis, is essential for this role.
We offer a dynamic work environment with opportunities for collaboration and professional growth. The salary for this position is $55,000 - $65,000 per year, depending on qualifications.
