Assistant Professor of Crop Genomics and Engineering
3 maanden geleden
RIBES is seeking to strengthen its team in the area of Crop Biotechnology and Engineering with two new positions (the other vacancy can be found here). As an assistant professor, you will contribute to our expanding research and education in the area of crop biotechnology and engineering.
The era of long-read DNA sequencing has allowed the assembly of complete plant and animal genomes and the description of genetic variation within and between species. However, the functional interpretation of this information and its exploitation in classical and novel breeding approaches is not trivial. Innovative research in computational and synthetic biology is addressing how the variation of DNA and protein sequences leads to phenotypic variation. Through the analysis of large datasets and modelling of genome structure, genetic recombination, gene expression variation, metabolic pathways, and protein structure, hypotheses can be developed. These can be tested to identify the effect of existing genetic variants, predicting useful functional variants, and to ultimately design functions and/or pathways for agricultural applications.
As an assistant professor, your main goal will be to set up a strong Crop Genomics and Engineering research line. You will be stimulated to collaborate with the current team in the department of Plant & Animal Biology that work on, for example, plant meiosis and genome engineering, abiotic stress tolerance, plant developmental biology and gene regulation, as well as with colleagues in the wider Radboud Institute for Biological and Environmental Sciences. Within the Faculty of Science, Crop Genomics and Engineering has strong links to the molecular, cellular and developmental biology research at RIMLS, modelling and data science at ICIS and IMAPP, and AI research across the campus. You will take a leading role in exploring possibilities for, and establishing, collaborations with national and international institutes. For instance, collaboration with Maastricht University's Brightlands Future Farming Institute in research and education is greatly encouraged.
With cutting-edge, internationally competitive research, a Crop Genomics and Engineering group will be able to exploit fundamental as well as strategic/translational science funding opportunities. You will embed your research in courses within the Biology BSc programme at Radboud University and the new Crop Biotechnology and Engineering MSc programme to be delivered with Maastricht University. Depending on your career stage, you should be able to obtain your teaching qualification within the first period of appointment or have demonstrated excellent teaching abilities.
