Postdoctoral Position in Cellular Biology and Functional Genomics for Maize Water-Deficit Tolerance INRAE in France

INRAE and Université Paris-Saclay are advertising a postdoctoral fellow position at GQE-Le Moulon in France . The project focuses on the genetic bases of maize tolerance to water deficit , with an emphasis on how mutations in cis-regulatory elements may alter drought tolerance in maize. This opportunity is well aligned with candidates interested in plant genetics , cellular biology , molecular biology , quantitative genetics , and crop stress biology. The post is framed as part of an inspiring c...

Earlham Institute in the UK is advertising 9 PhD studentships for an October 2027 start. The advertised research themes include plant gene regulation , genome language models , and fisheries pangenomics , making this a strong opportunity for students interested in the intersection of AI, biology, genomics, and computational life sciences . This is a PhD-level opening rather than a postdoctoral or master's call. The post does not provide detailed eligibility criteria, but the topics suggest a fit...

PhD opportunity at the John Innes Centre in Norwich, United Kingdom: Manipulating meiotic crossover control in wheat . This project sits at the intersection of genetics , genomics , plant cell biology , molecular genetics , bioinformatics , and quantitative genetics , with a strong applied focus on improving wheat breeding. The research asks whether meiotic crossover patterns in wheat can be deliberately altered to increase recombination in regions of the genome that are normally difficult to br...
