Details of the offer

Level A ($75,888 to $106,040) per annum plus an employer contribution of up to 17% superannuation applies.Fixed-term position available for 36 months. Be part of the ARC Centre of Excellence in Plants for Space and contribute to world-leading research projects. This role will investigate the genetic and molecular basis for inflorescence, flower and seed development in aquatic plant species suited to growth in controlled environmental conditions.Working within a collaborative and dynamic team at the University of Adelaide and with other P4S partners, the successful candidate will identify and characterise key pathways that influence developmental transitions, and develop genetic and molecular strategies to alter these pathways in transient and stable experiments. New plant lines will be assessed for changes in growth rate, reproduction and composition, and compared to model species to assess conservation of function.The tasks of the Postdoctoral Researcher will include: Molecular and genetic analysis of meristem and seed developmentDevelopment of transient and stable genetic strategies to assess gene functionApplication of histological and/or morphometric methods to track changes in growth, development and composition Outputs will include: Genetic pathways influencing developmental transitions in aquatic plant speciesIdentification of molecular targets for manipulation of plant growth and composition A testable model for cell division and differentiation capacity in different organs This exciting role will contribute to ARC Centre of Excellence in Plants for Space's goal to re-imagine plant design and bio-resource production to support long-term habitation in Space and solve sustainability challenges on Earth. To be successful you will need: 1. A completed or nearly completed PhD in Plant Sciences, Development, Molecular Biology, Plant Biochemistry or related subject.2. Demonstrated experience in a combination of genetic analysis, molecular biology, cell biology or confocal microscopy.3.
