Den här postdoktorstjänsten vid Institutionen för skogens ekologi och skötsel vid Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet (SLU) i Umeå fokuserar på hur organiskt kväve i växter styrs om från ren tillväxtmetabolism till signalering som påverkar utveckling och stresstolerans. Projektet undersöker kopplingarna mellan metabolism av organiskt kväve, metabolisk reglering och nedströms signalkaskader, samt hur dessa processer hänger samman med växters svar på både abiotisk och biotisk stress. Arbetet kombinerar ...

About this position

This postdoctoral project in the Stael Lab at the Department of Molecular Sciences, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, is focused on protease biochemistry and plant wound responses. The successful candidate will join the Uppsala BioCenter environment in Uppsala and work within a research programme that investigates how damage-activated proteolysis shapes plant responses to wounding and herbivory.

The advertised research builds on a recently identified signalling pathway in plant wound response involving damage-activated metacaspases and cleavage of immunomodulatory signalling peptides. The new project extends this work by examining the activation of additional proteases following physical damage and insect attack, with the goal of mapping protease–substrate networks in maize and Arabidopsis thaliana.

The work will combine protease- and substrate-centric proteomics with broader biochemical, genetic and cell biological approaches, mainly in Arabidopsis thaliana. The project is carried out in close collaboration with the SciLifeLab Chemical Proteomics unit in Stockholm and benefits from an international network of collaborators in protease biology. The research also connects to the development of next-generation crop protection strategies.

Within the broader department and Uppsala BioCenter, the position sits in a multidisciplinary setting spanning molecular sciences and plant-related research, offering access to shared technical platforms and a collaborative research environment.

Funding details

Funded by an ERC Consolidator Grant; 24-month fixed-term postdoctoral appointment with possible extension.

What's required

Applicants must hold a doctoral degree in the life sciences to be eligible for the postdoctoral position. The university is primarily seeking candidates who received their PhD no more than three years ago, although later degrees may be accepted for special reasons. The ideal candidate is a highly motivated plant biologist with strong analytical skills and a strong interest in discovering new mechanisms underlying plant wound responses. Required experience includes molecular cloning, recombinant protein expression in bacterial systems, biochemical analysis of proteins, and proteomics. Excellent oral and written English communication skills are expected.
