The Tooker Lab in the Department of Entomology at Penn State University Park is now accepting applications for part-time research assistant positions. Start and end dates are negotiable, and work has potential to be up to 40 hours/week during the summer. Our research group studies ecology of plants, plant-feeding insects and slugs, and spiders and predatory insects in agricultural and natural systems. Our projects this summer will focus on:
1. Ecologically based management (e.g., biological control) of crop pests
2. The role of cover crops in pest control
3. Plants that can "smell" their attackers and then defend themselves
4. The influence of agrochemicals on aquatic insect communities
Work will be performed in the State College area. Successful applicants will be paid a competitive hourly wage and will help graduate students and faculty with the new and ongoing research projects. We conduct greenhouse, lab, and field experiments and assistants will gain experience in different types of research techniques and systems. As assistants gain experience, they will gain more independence in their responsibilities. Interests in animals, plants, and agriculture are welcome but not required. We are looking for a diverse group of summer assistants who are curious and motivated with desire to learn new details about the world around us!
Employment with the University will require successful completion of background check(s) in accordance with University policies.
