We also have two positions available in my lab to work on alkaloid production for the pharmaceutical poppy industry. If you are interested in medicinal agriculture, mutant screens and genome editing, please email me.
The Postdoctoral Fellowship is under the CSIRO SIEF STEM+ Fellowship program and is fully funded for approximately 2.5 years. I'm looking for someone with tissue culture experience particularly for this position. It will suit a person who is keen to work in a fast-paced environment that involves regular time spent at the corporate partner's sites. Applicants must have no more than 6 years experience post PhD - this is an early career fellowship. A formal advert will go up soon. The PhD position will be on projects aligned with the postdoc above and comes with a full fees and stipend scholarship.

It's PhD recruitment time in Australia and here at AgriBio we have a lot of positions available with full scholarships for fees and stipends. Personally I have two projects in mind. The first is on transcriptional regulation during seed germination, following on from the paper we just published. The second is an extension of our 2016 paper on shoot-root sRNA signalling and DNA methylome regulation. Email me if you are interested!!
