Utrecht University offers a PhD scholarship in microbiome-driven crop nutrition, focusing on the interactions between plant-associated microbiomes and nutrient metabolism, specifically sulfur and nitrogen pathways in crops like soybeans. The project uses advanced methods including metagenomics, transcriptomics, and elemental analyses to explore sustainable agricultural practices. Candidates should have a Master’s degree in a relevant field and a background in molecular biology, microbiology, or biochemistry, along with experience in omics techniques.
