    Description

    The Research Associate will be expected to coordinate activities with the Principal Investigator and accomplish the objectives of the program with minimal supervision.

    Design and carry out experiments exercising discretion and judgement with minimal supervision.
    Analyze and interpret data using your experience and judgment to guide future experiments supporting the goals of the project.

    Daily tasks may include, but are not limited to: maintain equipment, conduct experiments, organize laboratory and catalog laboratory equipment, order supplies, analyze data from field and greenhouse experiments using various computer programs, and provide support for the preparation of publications and presentations.

    Prepare annual reports summarizing data collected during the year.
