Postdoctoral position: Small RNA-mediated gene regulation in plant immunity
A postdoctoral researcher position is available to study the function
and regulatory mechanism of pathogen-induced small RNAs in plant
immunity. Endogenous small RNAs have emerged as important players in
gene expression reprogramming during disease responses. The candidate
will focus on the identification of pathogen-regulated small RNAs at
the genome level. The functions of selected small RNAs and small RNA
targets will be characterized by molecular, genetics and biochemical
approaches. Applicants should have a Ph.D degree and a strong
background in molecular genetics, biochemistry and bioinformatics.
Experience in microarray and deep parallel sequencing analysis is
highly desirable. We are part of the Center for Plant Cell Biology
(CEPCEB), Institute for Integrative Genome Biology that equipped with
state of art genomics, proteomics, and bioinformatics facilities.
