PhD student and Post-Doc positions open in Plant Biology, University of Helsinki
In Plant Growth Dynamics group
PhD student and post doctoral positions are available in the newly established research group lead by Ari Pekka M�h�nen at Institute of Biotechnology, University of Helsinki, Finland. The goal of the group is to understand the function of cambium and especially the cambial stem cells, the founder cells for all wood. In the project, Cre-loxP based clonal analysis system is utilized to undergo a cell lineage analysis of the cambial cells both in wild-type and in mutants. Molecular genetics and advanced microscopy will be used as approaches to study the fate of cambial cells in the model species Arabidopsis thaliana.
Applicants with strong background in developmental genetics, plant molecular biology and/or cell biology are encouraged to apply. Applicants should send 1) a cover letter describing previous achievements, future career ambitions and motivation for this position; 2) Curriculum vitae with a list of publications and contact information of two referees to email address: AriPekka.Mahonen-at-helsinki.fi.
In Wood Development group
The genome wide sequence information will provide many new opportunities for functional studies. Applicants are searched to carry out research on wood development (PI: Yk� Helariutta) in tree species (Populus, Betula) and Arabidopsis with focus on the role of the plant hormones in controlling regulatory networks.
Applicants should send 1) a cover letter describing previous achievements, future career ambitions and motivation for this position; 2) Curriculum vitae with a list of publications and contact information of two referees to email address: yrjo.helariutta-at-helsinki.fi.
The deadline for applications is September 15th, 2011. However, the position can be filled earlier if a suitable candidate is found.
