Jaimie M. Van Norman, Ph.D. ▪ Assistant Professor ▪ Center for Plant Cell Biology ▪ Department of Botany & Plant Sciences ▪ University of California, Riverside ▪ 4202A Genomics ▪ Lab: (951) 827-2133, Office: (951) 827-2134 ▪ FAX: (951) 827-5155
Position Summary:
The Haus Lab in the Department of Horticulture at Michigan State University is hiring a research associate (postdoctoral position) to lead ongoing root biology research identifying root developmental traits associated with the multiple origins of dry bean and investigating legume root responses to abiotic stressors. Dry beans are an important source of plant-based iron and protein, but production is limited by a number of environmental stressors. Our projects aim to mitigate production losses using inherent, but poorly understood root traits. The successful candidate will lead research projects using developmental, quantitative genetics, and bioinformatic-based approaches. Expertise in plant development or bioinformatics (e.g. genetic mapping and transcriptomics) is preferred. The successful applicant should also have strong writing and communication skills and be able to work independently and as part of an interdisciplinary research team. Completion of a PhD degree program in Plant Science, Horticulture, or other closely related field; related work experience performing basic research techniques specific to the area of research employment such as: greenhouse and growth chamber research, field research, microscopy, or image analysis. Training is available on site.
