The Department of Agroecology at Aarhus University, Denmark, is offering a postdoctoral position in plant-microbe interactions, starting 1 January, 2025 or as soon as possible thereafter. The position will be available for a 3-year period.

You will be part of a research environment focusing on plant-microbe interactions. You will be contributing to specifically the area of exploring the mechanisms behind plant-microbe interactions. And the main focus of your position will be on how plant-microbe interactions can enhance plant pathogen resistance, ultimately advancing our capacity to leverage microbial communities to promote sustainable agriculture. You will work experimentally with already established field experiments.

We expect that you will be an important part of the research environment and that you will contribute positively to the social working environment. We also expect that you will take part in our teaching activities and that you will report research results in high-impact scientific journals.

We are searching for a highly motivated candidate who has:

A PhD with a focus on microbial ecology, plant-microbe interactions, other relevant subject or similar

Collaborative skills and ability to participate actively in teams

A fondness of taking the initiative and the motivation to pursue a scientific career

Documented experience in scientific writing and publication in peer-reviewed scientific journals

Research experience in some of the areas of experimental work, typically from experiments with soil and plants in the field and in greenhouses, as well as microbial community analysis and multivariate statistics. The candidates should have documented ability for independent scientific research work and skills in scientific writing and publication.

Further, we will prefer candidates with some of the following qualifications:

Teaching and supervision experience at the BSc and MSc level

Interest and preferably experience in developing competitive national and international research applications

Experience in planning and conducting field-work

Experience in planning and conducting laboratory work.

Experience with microbe analysis, including bioinformatics and multivariate data analysis
