Paleonet: Harris Post-Doc at Texas A&M

[Thomas Olszewski]

Hi all,

I would like to bring to your attention the Harris Post-Doc in the 
Department of Geology and Geophysics at Texas A&M University (see ad 
below).  The post-doc is for two years, covers salary and benefits, and 
provides a modest pool of money to carry out research.  It is not 
limited to any specific discipline within the geosciences, and although 
evaluation is competitive, paleontologically oriented applicants have 
historically fared very well (one of the recent recipients is a 
paleontologist).  If you have any questions or wish to apply, please 
feel free to contact me or any of my colleagues at Texas A&M (off-list, 
please).

Tom Olszewski
