The University of Colorado Museum of Natural History and Department of Ecology
and Evolutionary Biology (EBIO), University of Colorado Boulder, invite
applications for a joint, tenure-track appointment as Curator of Botany and
Assistant Professor. This position will be the first of several positions in
phylogenetic biology as part of a broad initiative to enlarge and strengthen

an active research program on any group of plants using phylogenetic and
systematic approaches, to curate and develop the Museum's botany collections,

is enhanced by collections from western North America, the American Arctic, the
Altai and the Caucasus Mountains of Central Asia, the European alpine, and the
Sierra Madre Occidental of Mexico.
