Postdoc at Notre Dame
​
The Rohr laboratory of ecology and global health invites applications for a postdoctoral research associate in ecology and quantitative environmental science. We seek creative, highly motivated scientists interested in addressing fundamental and applied questions in ecology through interdisciplinary research. Current and past postdocs in the lab have been involved in large-scale data science and ecological forecasting projects, planetary health work in Africa, studies of vector-borne disease of humans, and remote sensing. In addition to ecologists, postdoctoral candidates will have opportunities to work with mathematical modelers, statisticians, agronomists, social scientists, and medical doctors. Applicants with complementary interests are also encouraged to apply.
​
Successful applicants should hold a Ph.D. in ecology or a related quantitative discipline (e.g., environmental science, epidemiology, statistics, computer science, geography, public health). Candidates should have strong quantitative and analytical skills, demonstrated experience with statistical analyses and scientific visualization, and proficiency in R, Python, or similar programming languages. A strong publication record relative to career stage and excellent scientific writing skills are highly desirable. See more information about the lab and position in the below attached document under "Current Opportunities."
​
Interested applicants should apply directly by submitting a 1) cover letter, 2) curriculum vitae, 3) statement of research interests (maximum two pages), and 4) contact information for three professional references as a single PDF to Jason Rohr at jrohr2@nd.edu, with the subject line Quantitative Ecology Postdoc Application -LastName. Review of applications will begin August 14, 2026, and continue until the position is filled. Dr. Rohr will be at ESA 2026 in Salt Lake City and welcomes the opportunity to meet with prospective postdocs! Candidates attending ESA who are interested in discussing the position are encouraged to email in advance to arrange a meeting.
