Undergraduate Research Assistant needed to work in algal ecology lab at UCSB

We are seeking two motivated and independent life sciences 
undergraduates to assist in research that will examine how biodiversity 
affects ecological processes. Students would work in the laboratory of 
Bradley Cardinale, in the Department of Ecology, Evolution and marine 
Biology, and will be partially responsible for experiments that use 
freshwater algae to examine diversity's effect on primary production. 
Work duties would include setting up and maintaining experimental 
apparatus, collecting and storing algae samples, counting cells using a 
microscope and data entry. Student must be able to commit to 15 hours 
per week.

Applicants should be life sciences majors who have taken courses in 
biology, ecology or evolution. Interest in ecological questions is a 
bonus. Training in use of equipment and algae identification will be 
provided.
Application deadline is Wednesday, March 14th. Applicants must e-mail a 
letter of interest that details why they would like to work in an 
ecology lab and a resume (or curriculum vita) to:
