These methods will be used to model animal density using fecal DNA-based capture-recapture data along with a range of environmental variables. The research will contribute to 1) our understanding of the environment and its change on caribou population density and 2) the development of best practices for efficient sampling related to factors such as stratification and sample size needed for monitoring caribou density and various genetic indicators.
# Conservation genomics for use in establishing metrics for large-scale and long-term Genomic Monitoring of caribou through theimplementation of sequencing technologies, e.g. high/low coverage genomes, ampliconsequencing and the development of analytical pipelines supporting genomic indicator metrics. Areas of research focus will include indicators of diversity (e.g. inbreeding, genomic erosion and load) and genetic connectivity.
# integration of workflows with an established database and automated scoring platform.

Education & Experience: The PDF positions requires a minimum of a PhD with work experience being considered an asset.
