Position Summary Research will focus on the biology of carbonic anhydrases on photosynthesis, using multidisciplinary approaches, including proteomics, biochemistry, cellular and molecular biology, genomics and advanced live-cell imaging. We are interested in identifying and characterizing carbonic anhydrases and ancillary proteins necessary for photosynthesis of land plants. The successful candidate will work in a highly interdisciplinary environment in the MSU DOE-Plant Research Lab and will carry out research with mutants of the model species Arabidopsis thaliana that we have isolated in our lab. Equal Employment Opportunity Statement All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, citizenship, disability or protected veteran status. Required Degree Doctorate -Plant Biology, Cellular & Molecuar Biolo Minimum Requirements Ph.D., a record of publication in peer-reviewed journals and a strong background in cellular and molecular biology. Specialties: Cell Biology - Molecular Biology/Gene Regulation; Photosynthesis.
Other Specialties: Biochemistry, Genetics, Proteomics Desired Qualifications Experience in Arabidopisis genomics is essential. Experience with photosynthesis and stress responses is desiderable.
