PhD position in Plant Cell and Molecular Biology (m/f/d)

id="offer-description" class="ecl-u-type-heading-2 ecl-u-mt-none ecl-u-mb-l">Offer Description A funded PhD student position is available at the Chair of Plant Systems Biology at the School of Life Sciences of the Technische Universität München in Freising-Weihenstephan. Control of cell cycle progression by mechanical stress. We seek a highly motivated PhD student to join our newly established, interactive and collaborative team. The project builds on a well-established and highly visible track record in the analysis of plant growth processes regulated by cell-cycle-associated kinases, and extends this expertise to a new question: how mechanical stress controls cell cycle progression. The Chair of Plant Systems Biology has strong expertise in all relevant molecular, cell biological, biochemical, physiological and genetic techniques and access to a broad range of techniques and facilities on the TUM-Weihenstephan campus and beyond. Please send a letter of motivation and CV to: [email protected]. The position is available from November and will remain open until filled. Further information:. Website of the Chair.
