Faculty Position (Lectureship) in Plant Molecular Biotechnology, Botany and Plant Science
Su richiesta del prof. Bruno Mezzetti (Dipartimento di Scienze Ambientali e delle Produzioni Vegetali, Università Politecnica delle Marche) si riporta il seguente bando:
Applications are invited for a Lectureship (Below the Bar) within the Discipline of Botany and Plant Science at NUI Galway. Botany and Plant Science is one of the five Disciplines comprising the School of Natural Sciences, and currently contributes to teaching of undergraduate B.Sc. programmes in Biotechnology, Botany, Environmental Science and Marine Science.
The successful candidate will contribute to the design and delivery of Botany and Plant Science lecture courses, modules and practicals for undergraduate and postgraduate students. Research interests of existing groups in Botany and Plant Science span research on plant genetics, molecular genetics, epigenetics, genomics, biotechnology, evolution, bioinformatics, physiology, plant ecology and phycology.
The successful candidate will contribute to the School of Natural Sciences- Research Cluster on Plant and Agri-Biosciences [ http://www.plantagbiosciences.org/]. The Discipline of Botany and Plant Science is engaged in research on crops, algae and plant model organisms (e.g. Arabidopsis thaliana) in Ireland and internationally, including collaborations with crop research institutes in developing countries (e.g. ICRISAT, IITA).
The successful candidate will establish her/his own independently funded research programme (as a Principal Investigator) in Plant Molecular Biotechnology within Botany and Plant Science, and contribute to research training of graduate students and other researchers.
The successful candidate will be internationally recognised (via their publication record) and have an active research programme in key areas of plant/crop molecular biotechnologies, such as plant improvement for human health and nutrition, abiotic stress tolerance, applied epigenetics or plant reproduction/seed biology. Candidates who work on both model organisms (e.g. Arabidopsis thaliana, microalgae, and yeast) and crop plants are encouraged to apply, including candidates engaged in the application of plant molecular biotechnologies for improvement of staple crops in developing countries.
Required Qualifications: Applicants are required to have a PhD in plant molecular genetics, genomics, biotechnology or related area and have demonstrated research expertise in terms of peer-reviewed publications preferentially in high-impact international journals.
