About this position

Stockholm University is advertising a fully funded PhD position in the Department of Ecology, Environment and Plant Sciences (DEEP) in Sweden. The project is titled Epigenetic Basis of Reproductive Thermotolerance and focuses on how epigenetic regulation controls reproductive thermotolerance in plants. The research combines plant physiology, molecular biology, genetics, and epigenetics to study plant fertility, development, and adaptation under heat stress.

This opportunity is especially relevant for candidates interested in plant stress biology, plant reproduction, Arabidopsis research, microscopy, and climate-resilience-oriented plant science. The post highlights that the work will contribute to understanding crop resilience in the face of climate change.

Eligibility/preferences: applicants with experience in plant physiology and stress biology, plant reproduction, genetics and epigenetics, molecular biology techniques, microscopy, or Arabidopsis research are encouraged to apply.

Funding: the position is described as fully funded.

Location: Stockholm University, Stockholm, Sweden.

Deadline: 15 August 2026. Expected start: November 2026 (or as agreed).

Interested candidates should follow Stockholm University’s PhD application procedures and apply before the deadline.
