Scanning GSA, SVP, SICB, ASM, Science, Chronicle of Higher Ed, I have found 18 postings that are current. There were no appropriate ESA jobs this week. This is my first jobs posting, so I’m not surprised to find so many. As we move forward, I’m going to try to put up a compilation each week, so the number of new postings will be smaller. This listing covers over a month’s worth of live advertisements.

Another thing: I’m including a lot of positions that aren’t in North America, because I think that’s only fair. My main criterion for inclusion is imagining that one of the many kinds of 4D biologists I know could wedge him or herself into the position description. Consequently, Geospatial Information Librarian and Biosignatures Investigator are in, but Postdoctoral Associate working on histone deacetylase-4 (HDAC4) in cartilage and bone development is not. Perhaps I do have a paleobiological colleague who feels that work on HDAC4 is within her abilities; if so, please comment below and I’ll try to be more inclusive in the future.

I’ve organized them stratigraphically by closing date, with the latest dates at the top. Also, there is a big stack at the bottom with no closing dates. I’ll keep posting in this way until someone complains.
