Description

Postdoctoral Research Fellow

Seeking passionate researcher for the opportunity to be a key contributor in fundament plant research

Based in Hobart

Full time, fixed term role until June 2027

About the opportunity

We are seeking to appoint a Postdoctoral Research Fellow to work in the ARC CoE in the School of Natural Sciences which is part of the College of Science and Engineering.

This position will contribute to a key project within the Centre led by Chief Investigator A/Prof Eloise Foo entitled 'Domestication underground- exploring nutrient acquisition and hormone signalling strategies". The project will involve collaboration with other Chief Investigators including Prof David Jordan at the University of Queensland and interaction with Dr David Nichols in Central Science Laboratory at University of Tasmania. This project aims to understand how plants balance direct nutrient acquisition with the formation of symbioses with microbes and to examine how modification of hormone signalling through crop breeding has influenced beneficial plant-microbe symbioses. The Research Fellow will discover new mechanisms of how plants establish, regulate, and obtain benefit from symbioses by integrating our understanding of core symbiotic and hormone pathways.

What you'll do:

Undertake research on the physiology and genetics of beneficial plant-microbe interactions (nodulation and arbuscular mycorrhizal symbioses) including the role of plant hormones.

Actively engage with other project members, collaborators and stakeholders and contribute to project planning and the integration of laboratory and computational work.

Prepare scientific papers, liaise with agreed stakeholders and when agreed, submit for publication.

Contribute to the preparation of progress reports to agreed stakeholders, ensuring reporting obligations to grants are met and recommendations on future directions for the research are provided.

Participate in the wider activities of the Australian Research Centre of Excellence for Plant Success in Nature and Agriculture, including supporting various committees and participating in outreach activities.

What we're looking for:

A PhD in plant biology, specialising in developmental genetics, physiology and/or plant-microbe interactions.

A highly motived individual who will use this as an opportunity to launch their research career.

Demonstrated ability to work independently within established guidelines using discretion and sound judgement.

Experience in working as a part of a team to collaboratively write and publish scientific papers.

Experience in supervising undergraduate and Honours projects, or the capacity to do so.

Salary details

Appointment to this role will be at Academic Level A and will have a total remuneration package of up to $118,769 comprising base salary within the range of $78,499 to $101,512 plus 17% superannuation.
