Scientist - Impact of Host Genetics on Microbial Interactions

2 semanas atrás


Porto, Porto, Portugal Cnrs Tempo inteiro

Overview:

Cnrs seeks a skilled scientist to contribute to the PATHOCOM project, focusing on the impact of host genetics on microbial interactions. The selected candidate will work closely with international research groups to investigate the effects of Arabidopsis thaliana genetics on pairwise interactions between bacterial pathogenic strains.

Salary:

We offer a competitive salary range of €35,000 - €45,000 per year, commensurate with experience.

Job Description:

The postdoctoral project aims to integrate large-scale field observations of microbiota/pathobiota in A. thaliana with experimental tests of host-dependent interactions among microbes. Key responsibilities include setting up GWAS experiments to test the effect of 200 natural accessions of A. thaliana on 6 pairs of pathogenic strains under in vitro and field conditions, validating several QTLs using advanced plant genome editing tools, and collaborating with another postdoc on the project with complementary skills.

Required Skills and Qualifications:

Applicants should possess excellent skills in molecular biology to validate candidate genes underlying plant QTLs affecting pathogen-pathogen interactions. Mastery of the latest plant genome editing tools is essential. Skills in quantitative genetics, experimental design, and statistical analysis are advantageous. Fluency in English is required.

Benefits:

The position offers a unique opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research, collaborate with international teams, and develop expertise in plant genetics and genomics. Additionally, the ERC-funded project provides a comprehensive benefits package, including health insurance and retirement plans.

Others:

This 24-month postdoctoral project may be extended for an additional 12 months. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to work in a dynamic and collaborative environment at Cnrs, France, and participate in international collaborations with the Max Planck Institute (Germany) and New York University (USA).
