Field Assistant Position: I am looking for a field assistant to work in my lab at the Centre for Ecological Sciences at IISc in Bangalore. We study ecological interactions between species, and the consequences of these interactions at the population and community levels, mostly using insects and plants. See http://ces.iisc.ac.in/new/?q=user/435 for more details about our research.
Saskya studies population, community and behavioral ecology of interacting species in fragmented and changing landscapes. We are excited to have her here and look forward to her stint at CES.

Part I:
"Around 200 years back, Darwin set out on his historic voyage around the world, observing and cataloguing the immense diversity the world had to offer, he laid down the foundation for a theory that shook the foundation of biology, the theory of evolution out of which was born the field of evolutionary ecology which tries to unravel the countless puzzles of life nature has to offer.
