Postdoctoral Position in Plant Genomics, Computational Biology, and Data-Driven Agricultural Monitoring
EEAD-CSIC in Zaragoza, Spain is recruiting a
postdoctoral researcher
funded by the
MaX CSIC project
. The position is designed for an independent and collaborative scientist working at the intersection of
plant genomics
,
computational biology
,
agriculture
, and
environmental science
.
The successful candidate will contribute to one or more of three research directions:
resilient agroecosystems
(crop improvement, genotype-environment-microbiome interactions, climate stress adaptation, and sustainable production),
data-driven agricultural and environmental monitoring
(AI, machine learning, remote sensing, soil health, biodiversity, and predictive/precision agriculture), and
Climate-Ready Innovation Labs (CRILs)
(environmentally responsible agricultural systems that reduce chemical dependency and optimize resource use).
Eligibility includes a
PhD
in plant science, agronomy, computational biology, environmental science, or a related field, along with a strong publication record for career stage, interdisciplinary research ability, excellent communication skills, and motivation to work in a collaborative environment.
The appointment is a
full-time, two-year postdoctoral contract
with a
gross salary of 3,350 € per month
. The role also provides access to metabolomics, genomics, and phenotyping platforms, an experimental field, and data science/remote-sensing infrastructure. The institute also notes support for training and for future applications to Marie Curie, Juan de la Cierva, Araid, and Ramón y Cajal calls.
To apply, candidates should email a CV with publications, a cover letter describing research interests and fit, and contact details for two references to
[email protected]
. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis until the position is filled.
