Dear,

Would it be possible to post that job offer? I thank you for your help.

Post-doc position in bioinformatics at ULB: Genes and gene networks 
analysis related to root morphological response to nitrogen supply in 
plants

Lab. of Plant Physiology and Molecular Genetics, Université libre de 
Bruxelles, Brussels, BE

Mineral nitrogen (N) is the quantitatively most important nutrient in 
cropping systems. However, a considerable N fraction is lost through 
runoffs with detrimental consequences for the environment and human 
health. Increasing the plant N uptake by optimizing the degree of root 
branching for exploring a larger soil volume in search of the mobile 
nitrate resource may contribute to limit soil leaching. Oilseed rape 
(Brassica napus L.) is a major oil crop showing whose production highly 
dependents on N fertilization. The project aims at understanding the 
genetic control of root system architecture and how it is impacted by N 
nutrition. A measurable outcome will be to provide genetic markers for 
selecting new crop genotypes with positive root morphological features.

One post-doc fellowship for non-Belgian resident (3 years) - as early as 
October 2019

Relevant experience: Arabidopsis - Brassica genomics, QTL mapping 
(association and linkage), ShoreMap, gene networks
Eligibility: Maximum 6 years after PhD, no more than 24 months residence 
in Belgium during the three last years

Enthusiastic researchers meeting these criteria (only those with 
previous experience in bioinformatics will be considered) are kindly 
invited to contact Christian HERMANS (chermans at ulb.ac.be). Include your 
CV, qualifications and the names of two academic referees whom I can 
approach prior to appointment. Applications must be received by August 
15th 2019.

With kind regards,

Christian Hermans
