Animals vary dramatically in size and weight, inhabit a variety of environments (air, water, terrestrial) and experience fluctuating environmental conditions. All animals need to move their bodies through these variable environments and most do so quite well. We seek to understand the morphological and physiological adaptations that allow animals to optimally support and move their body, and how these mechanisms are affected by the biotic and abiotic environment. Projects in the lab focus mainly on insect movement, but we don't shy away from studying other organisms!

<strong>Interested in joining the lab? Please contact Schilder directly at <a href="mailto:rjs360@psu.edu">rjs360|at|psu|dot|edu</a>.</strong>

<strong>Position available: Research Technologist</strong>

The Schilder Lab seeks a research technician to support laboratory research on the biomechanics, physiology, and energetics of insect locomotion. The lab tends to operate at interfaces of biology and mechanical engineering, so the person hired in this position ideally should have some previous research experience in these realms of science, but this is not a requirement. Additionally, skills in manufacturing, electronics, and coding/scripting (e.g., MATLAB, python, etc.) are highly desirable. Independent research is supported and encouraged but is not part of regular duties. The person hired in this position will also aid graduate students in the lab and will assist with basic lab management (e.g., ordering supplies, submitting p-card receipts, laboratory inspections, etc.). The position requires a B.S. degree or higher in biology, entomology, mechanical engineering, or related discipline. This position would be ideal for a post-bac student seeking research experience prior to completing advanced degree studies.
The position is open to anyone with the legal ability to begin working in the US. Start date is negotiable, but a summer 2024 start is desirable. This will be a benefited, full-time research technologist position. The initial appointment is for one year, re-appointment is contingent upon job performance. An official posting of this job opening will be forthcoming, but interested applicants can contact Ruud Schilder at rjs360@psu.edu right now.

<p> Current work in the lab aims to determine (1) mechanisms by which skeletal muscle responds to changes in body weight (e.g., loading, natural growth), energy availability and body temperature, and how environmental factors such as diet and infectious disease (2) interact with these mechanisms to determine locomotor phenotypes observed in nature, across an evolutionarily diverse set of animal species. Our work requires a multi-disciplinary approach, combining techniques from biomechanics and electrophysiology, behavioral ecology, ecological and molecular physiology, and broad sense functional genomics. Research projects in the lab and the animal models central to them therefore tend to vary in nature. As indicated earlier, most animals use skeletal muscles, and basic skeletal muscle structure and composition is highly conserved among animals. So, in order to derive general rules that govern how animals modify locomotor function in response to internal and external cues, we can and should study many animals that differ in locomotion type.</p>
