About this position

Fully funded PhD opportunity at the Center for Plant Biotechnology and Genomics (CBGP), Madrid, Spain, in the Root organogenesis, regeneration and regeneration laboratory with Dr. Miguel A. Moreno Risueño and Dr. Mary Paz González García.

The project focuses on how climate change-induced temperature fluctuations affect root stem cell formation and tissue regeneration, with an emphasis on molecular feedback loops connecting stem cell regulators, telomere dynamics, and auxin signaling under climate-mimicking temperature conditions.

Training includes single-cell RNA sequencing, AI-powered 3D confocal imaging, and spatial transcriptomics (Molecular Cartography). Suitable for candidates with a background in Biotechnology, Biology, Biochemistry, Bioinformatics, or related fields; experience in plant molecular biology, developmental genetics, or computational biology is desirable, and R programming is a strong asset.

Funding includes a fully funded 4-year predoctoral contract under the Spanish AEI program, full social security and healthcare, tuition reimbursement, and a fully funded 3-month international research stay.

To apply, send a single PDF by email with your CV, motivation letter, degree certificates, transcripts, and one academic referee. Use the subject line: PhD Application – [Your First and Last Name]. Deadline: December 1st (interviews in December).
