The Niittylä group at Umeå Plant Science Centre & SLU is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to study carbon assimilation and partitioning mechanisms in Populus species. The role involves functional genomics, metabolomics, and isotope flux analysis to explore carbon sequestration in trees. Applicants should have a PhD in Plant Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, or Physiology, with strong laboratory skills and experience in metabolic flux analysis and transcription factor characterization. The position offers the opportunity to collaborate within a multidisciplinary team and contribute to research focused on enhancing our understanding of CO2 assimilation in trees.
