1 PhD student in the research education subject: Cell biolog
Molecular regulation of programmed cell death in plants
Project description
The PhD position is offered in the group of Peter Bozhkov to identify new programmed cell death regulators in plants using transcriptomics, proteomics and protein interaction methods. As model systems, you will use both Arabidopsis and somatic embryos of Norway spruce. In spruce embryos, cells at successive stages of developmental cell death can be mechanically separated from living cells. For functional studies of identified cell death regulators you will combine reverse genetics, biochemistry and microscopy.
More information about research profile of Bozhkov?s group can be found at:
http://www.slu.se/bozhkov/ and

We are looking for a highly motivated candidate with a higher university degree in molecular or cell biology (Master degree). Documented abilities to manage a laboratory research project and experience with standard molecular biology techniques are critically required. Documented hands on experience in one or more of the experimental areas, including transcriptomics, proteomics, protein-protein interaction, enzymology and microscopy will be considered as a significant asset. The applicant must be fluent in written as well as spoken English.
Research environment
The successful applicant will work at the Department of Plant Biology and Forest Genetics, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU). The department is located under umbrella of Uppsala BioCentre offering a creative and stimulating international environment with a very strong collaborative spirit.
