About the position
We are looking for an assistant for the Stream and Riparian ecology lab at SLU Umeå. We are looking for an enthusiastic person to assist laboratory work on streams and riparian areas. The ideal candidate will be able to work independently in the lab and be familiar with the samples and sampling procedures from water. The predominant task will be to sort aquatic invertebrates. Tasks will include cleaning samples, sorting and possibly identifying aquatic invertebrates, and analyzing bottom substrates.
