Tenure-track Research Scientist
Biology Department, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI)

The Biology Department at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) invites
applications for one or more full-time tenure-track positions on our Scientific Staff. We seek
exceptional candidates to complement our existing interdisciplinary strengths in biology,
biological oceanography, and marine ecology (http://www.whoi.edu/biology). Candidates in all
areas are welcome to apply, but we are particularly interested in applicants who conduct
research in coastal ecosystem processes and dynamics. Areas of expertise can encompass
any aspect of marine biology, physiology, or ecology, and would ideally focus on both
characterizing long-term forcing on the coastal ecosystem (e.g., climate change, ocean
acidification, sea level rise, persistent human perturbation) and understanding/predicting the
biological response (e.g., acclimation, adaptation, distribution shift). We seek to hire at the
Assistant Scientist level, but exceptionally well qualified candidates at other levels also will be
considered.

Applicants should have a doctoral degree, postdoctoral experience, and a record of scientific
research publications in scholarly journals. WHOI scientific staff members are expected to
develop an internationally recognized and externally funded research program. They have the
opportunity to advise graduate students and teach courses in the MIT/WHOI Joint Program in
Oceanography and Oceanographic Engineering (http://www.whoi.edu/jointprogram/).
Opportunities for interdisciplinary research exist through collaboration with the other science
departments (Applied Ocean Physics and Engineering, Marine Chemistry and Geochemistry,
Marine Geology and Geophysics, and Physical Oceanography;
www.whoi.edu/main/departments-centers-labs), WHOI’s Marine Policy Center
(http://www.whoi.edu/main/mpc), and the WHOI Ocean Institutes (www.whoi.edu/main/oceaninstitutes),
as well as with researchers in the broader Woods Hole scientific community.
Members of the WHOI’s Scientific Staff are expected to provide for their salaries from grants
and contracts, but the Institution provides salary support when no other funding is available as
well as significant internal funding for developing innovative research. Candidates hired at the
junior level will receive an initial appointment for four years with salary guaranteed. Female and
minority applicants are particularly encouraged to apply. WHOI is sensitive to the issues of dual
career scientists and will work with applicants to identify and explore available options. WHOI’s
benefits package includes vacation time, an employer contribution retirement plan, medical and
dental plans, child care subsidy, flexible scheduling, and family illness days.

WHOI is the largest private, non-profit oceanographic institution in the world, with staff and
students numbering approximately 1,000. Its mission is to advance our understanding of the
ocean and its interaction with the Earth system, and to communicate this understanding for the
benefit of society. The Institution is located in Woods Hole, Massachusetts, a world-renowned
center of excellence in marine, biomedical, and environmental science.

HOW TO APPLY:
Apply online; please visit http://jobs.whoi.edu and respond to Job Reference 15-12-05.
Applications should include, as a single pdf document, a cover letter, CV, 3-page research
statement that clearly describes your research interests, names and contact information for four
references, and copies of up to three relevant publications. The package should also be sent
separately to the chair of the Biology Department at biologychair@whoi.edu.
Review of applications will begin on 15 January 2016.
