A postdoctoral position is available at University of Nebraska-Lincoln to study abiotic stress tolerance (drought and heat stress) in cereals crops (wheat and maize). Current work focuses on genomic, physiological and biochemical characterization of genes involved in abiotic stress tolerance. The candidate will use genomics approaches (microarrays, RNA-seq etc.) in combination with high-throughput phenotyping to identify genes regulating stress tolerance. The primary area of study will be drought stress in wheat and maize. Additional opportunities may also be available depending on individual’s research interests. Applicants must have a Ph.D. in Plant Biology, Molecular Biology, or Plant Genetics, or a closely related field at the time hiring. The candidate must be willing to work as part of a team in a collaborative environment. Prior experience with gene expression analysis (microarrays, RNA-seq, statistical analysis of expression datasets, or real-time PCR), cloning, vector construction, ChIP, transgenic and mutant analysis is desirable. Preference will be given to candidates with evidence of publications and strong interest in crop improvement using genetic and functional genomics approaches. Ability to manage large-scale sequencing data is highly desirable. This position also includes opportunities for undergraduate mentoring. The initial appointment will be for one year and is renewable for up to 3 years. Salary is commensurate with experience and qualifications. Interested candidate should apply by email to Dr. Harkamal Walia (click the link for contact information http://www.agronomy.unl.edu/newfacultystaff/directory/walia.html). The email should include the following: (1) cover letter explaining the research interests, (2) CV, (3) publications or in press articles, and (4) contact information including phone numbers for 3 references. -- Harkamal Walia Assistant Professor Department of Agronomy & Horticulture University of Nebraska 326 Keim Hall, Lincoln, NE 68583-0915 Ph: (402) 472-1162 hwalia2@unl.edu
