About this position
Two postdoctoral positions are available at the University of Amsterdam in the Swammerdam Institute, Green Life Sciences cluster, within an interdisciplinary and industry-connected project on plant physiology, plant pathology, plant immunity, virology, and insect-plant interactions.
The first role, Postdoc in Plant–virus interactions (Department of Molecular Plant Pathology), focuses on advanced molecular and biochemical approaches to understand how plant RNA viruses interact with their hosts.
The second role, Postdoc in Plant–vector–virus interactions (Department of Plant Physiology), studies the plant–thrips–virus pathosystem, including how thrips manipulate plant targets to exploit the host and how viral infection changes this interaction.
The post is announced by Petra Bleeker, Associate Professor of Plant Physiology at the University of Amsterdam. The opportunity is aimed at postdoctoral researchers with relevant expertise in molecular biology, biochemistry, plant-virus interactions, and related life-science methods.
No deadline, salary, or funding amount is stated in the post excerpt provided. Interested candidates should follow the vacancy links and apply via the University of Amsterdam recruitment pages for the specific postdoctoral role(s).
