4. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled postdoctoral researcher to work on high-throughput metabolite discovery for plant resilience against pathogenic fungi, heat, or drought stress. The project’s central focus is identifying small molecules to improve plant stress resilience. To this end, we will devise high-throughput screens (96- or 384-well format), enabling the testing of compounds and metabolic extracts for their bioactivities in relation to biotic (fungal infection) and abiotic (drought and heat) conditions.

5. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled postdoctoral researcher to work on targeted and untargeted metabolite discovery against pathogenic fungi, heat, or drought stress. The project’s central focus is identifying small-molecule compounds to improve plant stress resilience. To this end, we will employ mid-throughput binding screens and nano-differential scanning fluorimetry to look for novel small-molecule ligands of known proteins central for plant growth and stress resilience. A critical project step will include curating and overseeing the natural compound libraries to be tested against proteins of interest.
