Description

The Smith Lab at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, in collaboration with the Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center, is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to focus on developing cell-specific strategies to improve bioenergy crops. The role involves studying lignin biosynthesis in Sorghum bicolor, identifying cell-type specific promoters, and using advanced techniques like single-cell RNA sequencing, transcriptomics, metabolomics, and proteomics. The position offers opportunities for independent research, mentoring junior lab members, and contributing to publications.
