About this position

The Department of Botany and Plant Sciences at the University of California, Riverside is building a pool of candidates for future appointments in its Postdoctoral Scholar Series. The position is framed as advanced research training within a university setting, where postdoctoral scholars contribute to both the research and education missions of the department and the wider campus.

Successful candidates will work under the supervision of a faculty mentor and become part of the intellectual life of the research group and broader academic community. The postdoctoral role is described as one that brings expertise and creativity to the university environment, including interactions that can enrich the experience of graduate and undergraduate students.
