PhD in Collaborative Metadata Management for Data-Driven Plant Resilience Enhancement
by BeNeLux bioinformaticians forum 10 Mar '25

10 Mar '25

Hi all, We are seeking a highly motivated PhD candidate to join our research team focused on Collaborative Metadata Management for Large Data Repositories supporting data-driven methods and AI models in plant science. The project is part of the CropXR program, a highly collaborative 10-year national initiative of universities and industry, with a mission to grow resilient crops developed by a data-driven design. This PhD project will analyse and address the requirements for establishing effective metadata management in large data repositories. The expected outcomes are innovative technical solutions, systems, and methodologies for metadata elicitation, metadata evolution, and metadata quality management. The goal of these outcomes is to improve the practices of metadata management in plant sciences in accordance with the FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable). This will enable our team of interdisciplinary partners to reliably develop, train and deploy complex AI models for improving plant resilience (e.g., plants which are more resilient to temperature changes or drought). More information: https://careers.tudelft.nl/job/Delft-PhD-Position-Collaborative-Metadata-Ma… Deadline: 13 Apr 2025 kind regards, Thomas

Postdoc on genome assemblies of four plant-parasitic nematode species
by BeNeLux bioinformaticians forum 04 Mar '25

04 Mar '25

Dear all, The Laboratory of Nematology at Wageningen University has an opening for a bioinformatics postdoc position on genome assembly. Are interested in genome biology and do you want to help our understanding of nefarious soil-borne parasites? At the laboratory of Nematology at Wageningen University we are looking for a PostDoc on genome assemblies of four plant-parasitic species. Do you have a keen interest in host-parasite interactions? Do you enjoy applying cutting-edge genomics to current agronomical problems? Are you skilled at genome assembly and eager to explore the genomic and genetic diversity in economically important plant-parasitic species? If yes, then we may have the perfect opportunity for you!
