Our lab is seeking a PhD graduate research assistant to begin in Fall 2018.
The assistant willcomplete work funded by a USDA-NIFA grant, which seeks to
determine why rumen microbes grow with such poor efficiency. Experiments
will involve fermenter trials with mixed rumen bacteria, omasal sampling of
cannulated cows, and biochemical experiments with pure cultures of bacteria.
Additionally, the assistant will help other students complete work funded by
a second USDA-NIFA grant,which uses fluorescent carbohydrates to identify
uncultured bacteria and the feed carbohydrates they consume.

An MS in Animal Sciences, Microbiology, Nutrition, or related field is
required. Experience with continuous culture fermenter systems and one or
more publications in a journal with international stature are preferred.

A basic stipend of $20,000/yr is guaranteed. A stipend of up to $36,000/yr
may be achieved by wellqualified students in university fellowship
competitions.
More information on the Hackmann and Faciola labs can be found at
