<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">A post-doctoral graduate student in Dr. Stock’s multidisciplinary lab is looking to hire one undergraduate student for the summer and fall. Please see details below:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">The goal of our study is to assess the patterns of soil nematode communities along the elevation gradient and determine the environmental factors that may play a key role on their distribution
 in the Santa Catalina mountains. For this project, soil samples will be collected at four elevational points covering different vegetation types on the south slope of the Santa Catalina mountains. From each sample, nematodes will be collected and DNA will
 be extracted and submit to the sequencing facility. Additionally, soil moisture, pH, and other soil properties will be measured.
<b>The undergraduate student will have the opportunity to gain experience in soil sampling, nematode extraction, DNA extraction, PCR, and measuring soil physo-chemical properties.
