Postdoctoral Researchers - Two Positions in Plant-Microbe Interactions. Two postdoctoral research positions are available in plant and microbial biology in the laboratories of Dr. Sabrina Russo (http://russolab.unl.edu/ ) and Dr. Karrie Weber (https://sites.google.com/site/ microbialbiogeochemistry/) at the University of Nebraska - Lincoln. These positions are part of a multi-PI NSF-funded project investigating plant-microbe rhizosphere interactions in natural and agricultural systems. We are seeking two postdoctoral fellows with complementary expertise to work collaboratively with each other, Russo and Weber, and other project investigators on field, greenhouse, and lab-based research to identify how microbial community structure and function influence plant phenotypes using stable-isotope probing, metagenomics, and proteomics. The postdoctoral fellows will also have the opportunity to develop independent projects. We are looking for creative, independent scientists with expertise in the following or related areas: plant or microbial ecology and physiology, community and ecosystem ecology, bioinformatics, or molecular biology or -omics approaches. Qualified candidates will have a PhD in biology, ecology, microbiology, plant physiology, biochemistry, or related disciplines, as well as a demonstrated track record of scientific publication. Interested candidates should send a single PDF document with a cover letter explaining their interests and experience and a CV listing the names and contact information of three references to both Dr. Russo ([email protected]) and Dr. Weber ([email protected]) with the subject line, "Postdoctoral Position".
