- Documented working experience with plant assays or plant pathogens
- Multi-omics data analysis skills in R or Python
- Good knowledge of biostatistics
- Good communication and collaborative skills
Nice-to-Have Qualifications
- Experience with plants experiments, including cultivation, maintenance, and site-specific sampling of microbial communities in the rhizosphere, rhizoplane, and endosphere
- Experience with advanced metagenomics, transcriptomics, flow cytometry, and in-planta assays
Terms of Employment
The position is covered by the Memorandum on Job Structure for Academic Staff. The monthly salary starts at 31,709 DKK (approximately 4,262 Euro, October 2022-level). The employer will pay an additional 17.1% to your pension fund. Negotiation for salary supplement is possible.
Application Procedure
The application, in English, must be submitted electronically. Please include a curriculum vitae, diplomas (Master and PhD degree or equivalent in English), motivation letter specifying project-related experience, complete publication list, and separate reprints of 2-3 particularly relevant papers.
