Job Description
Position Summary
We seek to recruit a highly motivated and skilled postdoctoral researcher to investigate how nematodes respond to chemical and environmental cues, with the goal of advancing plant resilience through improved understanding of plant-nematode interactions and stress tolerance mechanisms.
This position supports two research initiatives. In collaboration with researchers from Center for Sustainable Plant Innovation and Resilience through International Teamwork (https://c-spirit.org/) (C-SPIRIT), the successful candidate will investigate the effects of plant-derived compounds on nematode physiology, behavior, and survival, with the goal of discovering natural products that protect crops from parasitic nematodes such as root-knot nematodes. A second focus will be on understanding the molecular mechanisms of desiccation tolerance in the model nematode C. elegans, particularly in the dauer stage, in partnership with the Water and Life Interface Institute...
