A postdoctoral position is available at the University of Potsdam to study the adaptation of plants to abiotic stress and the role of epigenetic mechanisms in this process.
Using genetic and molecular tools we study the long-term adaptation of plants to abiotic stress and the roles of epigenetic and chromatin regulation in this process (see also: http://www.uni-potsdam.de/de/ibb/arbeitsgruppen/nachwuchsgruppen/baeurle.html). The position is funded by a Sofja-Kovalevskaja-Award (Alexander-von-Humboldt-Foundation).
In a genetic screen we have isolated a number of Arabidopsis thaliana mutants with a modified heat stress memory. The successful candidate will analyze those mutants and functionally characterize the corresponding gene products and their role in heat stress acclimation using genetics, molecular biology and biochemistry techniques.
The successful candidate holds a PhD in genetics or molecular biology and is expected to have a proven track record in plant genetics, molecular biology or biochemistry. A demonstrated aptitude for genetics is essential. A strong interest in the research question, flexibility, and the ability to work both independently and in a team are required. The working language of the laboratory is English.
Please send your application including Curriculum Vitae, a letter detailing your motivation to apply for this position, a copy of your PhD certificate,and contact information for two referees to Prof. Isabel Bäurle (isabel.baeurle@uni-potsdam.de). Applications will be accepted until 30 June 2013.
