博士后招聘(Osbourn实验室)

链接:https://www.jic.ac.uk/vacancies/postdoctoral-researcher-osbourn-lab/

  • 截止日期:2019年6月27日
  • 工资:31250英镑至38100英镑,视资历和经验而定。
  • 合同:截止2021年3月31日为全职。

邀请一名博士后研究人员参与Anne Osbourn教授(英国约翰英纳斯中心John Innes Centre-诺威奇 https://www.jic.ac.uk/ )和白洋研究员(中国科学院遗传学与发育生物学研究所-北京)实验室之间的合作项目。
成功的候选人将在英国诺威奇约翰英纳斯中心工作,但也将访问白洋课题组在遗传发育所的实验室,以开展与微生物组分析有关的这项工作的关键方面。

该项目由中国科学院-英国约翰英纳斯中心植物和微生物科学联合研究中心(CEPAMS)资助。

项目研究内容

根据Osbourn和白洋实验室最近发表的研究成果(《科学》2019年5月10日,详见- 《专家点评Science:中英合作揭示拟南芥三萜化合物特异调控根系微生物组》),成功的候选人将研究宿主代谢产物环境对塑造根系微生物组产生的影响。具体来说,我们将:

  1. 利用现有的转录组资源,研究了拟南芥在不同非生物胁迫和生物胁迫下根系中的生物合成基因簇表达,并通过qPCR实验验证不同环境条件对基因表达的影响。不同环境胁迫对野生型拟南芥根系微生物群落的影响将通过根系微生物组测序来确定。然后研究不同环境条件下三萜途径基因突变/过度表达对根系微生物组建立和植物适应性的影响。
  2. 对纯化的拟南芥根三萜对拟南芥土壤微生物组培养的代表性菌株生长的影响进行了体外试验,并评价了不同菌株对植物生长发育的影响。
  3. 利用一套有效的、完全解析清楚的燕麦新途径突变体,研究不同三萜类(燕麦新苷avenacins)对燕麦根系微生物组建立的影响。这些实验将揭示Avenacin通路在调节燕麦根系微生物组中的作用,并将其与拟南芥的研究结果进行比较。

理想的候选人

岗位人员将独立工作,确保研究和记录的保存符合良好实践、科学诚信和当地政策和任何法律要求。

申请者要求已经获得植物生物学或微生物学相关博士学位,并具有丰富的植物和/或微生物遗传学和分子生物学经验。有植物胁迫生物学和/或微生物组分析经验者优先。良好的沟通和人际交往能力是必不可少的。

附加信息

根据资历和经验,获得的年薪将在31250至38100英镑之间。到2021年3月31日之前这是一个全职职位。

Postdoctoral Researcher (Osbourn Lab)

Links:https://www.jic.ac.uk/vacancies/postdoctoral-researcher-osbourn-lab/

  • Closes: 27th June 2019
  • Salary: £31,250 to £38,100 depending on qualifications and experience
  • Contract: Full time until 31 March 2021.

Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral Researcher to work on a collaborative project between the laboratories of Professor Anne Osbourn (John Innes Centre) and Dr Yang Bai (Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology, Beijing).

The successful candidate will be based at the John Innes Centre but will also visit Dr Bai’s lab at IGDB to carry out key aspects of this work relating to microbiome analysis.

This project is funded by the John Innes Centre – Chinese Academy of Sciences Centre of Excellence in Plant and Microbial Science Alliance (CEPAMS).

The role

Building on recently published work from the Osbourn and Bai labs (‘A specialized metabolic network selectively modulates Arabidopsis root microbiota’ Science 10 May 2019:Vol. 364, Issue 6440, eaau6389), the successful candidate will investigate the impact of the environment on production of host metabolites that sculpt root microbial communities. Specifically, they will:

  1. Use available in silico transcriptome resources to investigate the expression of Arabidopsis biosynthetic gene clusters in roots in response to different abiotic and biotic stresses and verify the effects of different environmental conditions on gene expression experimentally by qPCR.  The impact of different environmental stresses on root microbial communities in wild type Arabidopsis will be established by root microbiome sequencing. The impact of mutation/overexpression of triterpene pathway genes on root microbiota establishment and plant fitness under different environmental conditions will then be investigated
  2. Carry out in vitro tests of the effects of purified Arabidopsis root triterpenes on the growth of representative bacterial strains cultured from the Arabidopsis soil microbiota and evaluate the effects of different microbial strains on plant growth and development
  3. Investigate the impact of different triterpenes (avenacins) on root microbiome establishment in oat using a suite of available thoroughly characterised avenacin pathway mutants. These experiments will reveal the role of the avenacin pathway in regulating oat root microbiota and enable comparisons to be made with findings for Arabidopsis

The ideal candidate

The post holder will work independently and ensure research and record keeping is carried out in accordance with good practice, Scientific Integrity and in compliance with local policies and any legal requirements.

The successful applicant will have a PhD in plant biology or microbiology and extensive experience of plant and/or microbial genetics and molecular biology. Experience of plant stress biology, and/or microbiome analysis are desirable.  Excellent communication and interpersonal skills are essential.

Additional information

Salary on appointment will be within the range £31,250 to £38,100 per annum depending on qualifications and experience.  This is a full time post available until 31 March 2021.

Further information and details of how to apply can be found here or contact the Human Resources team on 01603 450462 or nbi.recruitment@nbi.ac.uk  quoting reference 1003704.  Click here to find out more about working at the John Innes Centre.

We are an equal opportunities employer, actively supporting inclusivity and diversity.  As a Disability Confident organisation, we guarantee to offer an interview to all disabled applicants who meet the essential criteria for this vacancy. The John Innes Centre is also proud to hold a Gold Award from Athena SWAN and is a member of Stonewall’s Diversity Champions programme.

The closing date for applications will be 27 June 2019

The John Innes Centre is a registered charity (No. 223852) grant-aided by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council and is an Equal Opportunities Employer.
