Postdoctoral Position on the Maize Genetics of Nitrogen Fixation in Aerial Roots
A postdoctoral position (up to four years) is available in the Ané lab (http://anelab.wisc.edu/) in the departments of Bacteriology and Agronomy at the University of Wisconsin – Madison.
The postdoctoral researcher will be part of an interdisciplinary team studying the plant genetic determinants controlling nitrogen fixation in maize aerial roots. The researcher co-mentored by Dr. Jean-Michel Ané and Dr. Claudia Calderón will characterize the plant genes controlling aerial root development, mucilage production, and nitrogen fixation in maize. The researcher will be involved in interdisciplinary collaborations nationally and internationally. For more information, on the scientific background, please read:

We believe that diversity is a source of strength, creativity, and innovation. We value each individual's contributions and respect the profound ways in which their identity, culture, background, experience, status, abilities, and opinion enrich the university community. We commit ourselves to excellence in teaching, research, outreach, and diversity as inextricable goals. Our lab aims to make science more inclusive of people of all identities, and we strongly encourage people of color, and people of all genders, sexual orientation, and cultural backgrounds to apply.
Candidates must have completed their Ph.D. less than 4 years ago.
Starting Salary: $47,476 with full benefits from the University of Wisconsin - Madison
Anticipated Start Date: January 1, 2021
Requirements: A Ph.D. in Plant Genetics, Plant Breeding, or related fields is required. The successful candidate will have co-authored one or more peer-reviewed publications in reputable international journals in plant sciences and will be an expert in plant quantitative genetics, plant genetics and plant breeding. Candidates with experience in maize quantitative genetics and breeding are particularly encouraged to apply. Excellent oral and written communication skills in English and the ability to work well in a collaborative environment are essential.
To Apply: Please send a cover letter, a CV, and 3 references by email to Dr. Jean-Michel Ané (jeanmichel.ane@wisc.edu). Please entitle your email “Application for maize genetics position”.
