A postdoc position is available for work on the project „IMPLAMINT: Increasing agricultural nutrient-use efficiency by optimizing plant–soil-microorganism interactions“.
Molecular ecology of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in agricultural systems, also experimental studies on AMF ecology. This is a cooperative team project with several research institutions in Germany, funded by BMBF. This project is intended to last 9 years; it is initially funded for 3 years (since there was a late start the position announced is for slightly less than 3 years, but with potential to reach the full 3 years through a no-cost extension). Research includes work at long-term field sites in Germany. Desired skills include experience with high-throughput sequencing, bioinformatics and statistics, as well as community ecology. Ph.D. must be completed. Send complete materials as pdf to [email protected] by 29.6.2015 for full consideration. Visit the Rillig lab website at rilliglab.wordpress.com for info on the lab.
