Postdoctoral Researcher / Senior Scientist in the field of plant single-cell and spatial transcriptomics

The group of Björn Usadel at the institute IBG-4 at Forschungszentrum Jülich is a well-resourced, internationally leading lab for plant omics, data integration and biological data science within the Cluster of Excellence on Plant Sciences (CEPLAS).

Our research is dedicated to enhancing health-promoting metabolites in plants and to understanding plant stress responses and adaptation. To this end, we combine genome and transcriptome analysis, metabolomics, phenotyping and AI to understand how plant cells, tissues and metabolic networks respond to stress, infection and domestication. Our work focuses on Solanales crops, tea and Camelina sativa.

We are looking for an ambitious plant biologist with single-cell and/or spatial omics expertise who wants to build a visible research profile at the interface of plant stress biology, metabolites, spatial...
