Thanks to all of the authors for amazing contributions to the second edition of the carrion ecology book that hit the presses a few days ago. This was about 2 years in development and has major additions.

Interested in postdoc position in my lab? We do a lot of decomposition ecology (black soldier fly and blow fly as models). Will get experience in grant writing, as well as opportunity to diversify research toolbox - microbes, genetics, volatiles, behavior, more- DM if interested
