Postdoctoral position in plant signaling pathways controlling microbial symbioses
A postdoctoral position 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 symbiotic associations between plants and microbes using proteomics, genetics, and biochemistry. In particular, this project is looking at the role that phosphorylation and ubiquitination play in regulating proteins involved in the establishment of symbiotic associations such as legume nodulation and arbuscular mycorrhizal associations. The postdoctoral researcher mentored by Dr. Jean-Michel Ané will test hypotheses from proteomic approaches using genetics and biochemistry in legumes and cereals. The researcher will be involved in interdisciplinary collaborations nationally and internationally.
Starting Salary: $47,476 with full benefits from the University of Wisconsin - Madison
Anticipated Start Date: May 15, 2017
Requirements: A Ph.D. in Plant Molecular and Cellular Biology, Plant Genetics, Plant Physiology, or related fields is required. The successful candidate will have co-authored one or more peer-reviewed publications in reputable international journals in basic plant sciences and will be an expert in plant molecular and cellular biology. Candidates with prior experience in the study of ubiquitination, nitrogen fixation, or plant-microbe interactions are especially 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 three references by email to Dr. Jean-Michel Ané (jeanmichel.ane@wisc.edu). Please entitle your email “Application for postdoc position”.

POSITION SUMMARY:The Department of Bacteriology seeks a Research Specialist/Lab Manager for the Jean-Michel Ane Lab. Our faculty, staff, and students have created a vibrant place to learn, teach, and conduct research, a place rich in opportunity, ideas, creativity, and resources, and a place where people can flourish and discover their own potential. Because we engage people with widely differing backgrounds, talents, perspectives, and styles, we achieve excellence through diversity.
The Ane lab seeks to understand and manipulate the molecular mechanism controlling symbiotic associations between plants and microbes. We transfer information gained from model plants such as Medicago truncatula to crops such as soybean, rice and corn in order to take full advantage of the fantastic opportunities offered by these beneficial associations to our agriculture. Our goal is to use microbes better to maintain the sustainability of our agriculture by protecting the environment over the long term and reducing costs for food, feed and biofuel production.
