職務名稱：Postdoctoral Researcher
系所/單位名稱：the Ding-Dean Group
申請人資格：
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Postdoctoral Researcher to join the Ding-Dean Group at the John Innes Centre, working on cutting-edge science in the field of Arabidopsis molecular genetics.
About the John Innes Centre:
The John Innes Centre is an independent, international centre of excellence in plant and microbial sciences. We nurture a creative, curiosity-led approach to answering fundamental questions in bioscience, and translate that knowledge into societal benefits. Our strategic vision, Healthy Plants, Healthy People, Healthy Planet, sets out our ambitious long-term goals for the game changing impact of our science globally. Our employees enjoy access to state-of-the-art technology and a diverse range of specialist training opportunities, including support for leadership and management.

The role:
The Postdoctoral Researcher will work on the mechanistic basis of how cis-determinants through DNA sequence polymorphism and local chromatin changes influence co-transcriptional regulation and epigenetic switches. They will exploit the well-characterized Arabidopsis FLC system and dissect how different mutations have independently evolved to change the rates of FLC silencing over winter. This project will develop skills in RNA structure analysis in vivo, co-transcriptional and epigenetic regulation and effective project management
The ideal candidate:
Candidates should have a PhD in molecular biology or a related discipline with previous experience working with Arabidopsis molecular genetics. Good communication and organisation skills are required, together with the ability to work independently, yet as an interactive colleague within a larger team.
聘期：3 Years, full-time
薪資待遇：£37,500 - £45,350 per annum depending on qualifications and experience.
受理期間：2025年10月8日止 (We reserve the right to close this vacancy early before the closing date if enough applications are received.)
