The Institute of Plant Sciences at the Volcani Institute, Agricultural Research Organization (ARO), Israel, is offering MSc, PhD, and postdoctoral positions in a dynamic and innovative research environment. The lab, led by Prof. Ido Nir, focuses on cutting-edge research in plant development and environmental responses, with a particular emphasis on the spatial regulation of stomatal development and the integration of environmental signals.

Research topics include molecular and genetic approaches, gene editing using CRISPR, advanced imaging techniques, and physiological data analysis. The project is designed to combine both fundamental and applied research, providing opportunities for collaboration both locally and internationally. The lab environment is supportive and encourages both independent and team-based work.

Ideal candidates will have a strong background in molecular biology and/or plant physiology, with demonstrated scientific curiosity, critical thinking skills, and the ability to work independently. Experience with molecular genetics, CRISPR, or advanced imaging is advantageous but not strictly required. The announcement does not specify funding details, so applicants are encouraged to inquire directly with Prof. Nir regarding financial support and stipends.

To apply, interested candidates should contact Prof. Ido Nir via email at [email protected] or through private message, providing details about their background and research interests. The opportunity is open until filled, and sharing the announcement is encouraged.
