University of Oslo announces Research Fellowship in the Department of Molecular Biosciences, Norway

Study Subject(s):Molecular Genetics
Course Level:PhD
Scholarship Provider: University of Oslo, Norway
Scholarship can be taken at: Norway

Eligibility:
Applicants must hold a PhD degree in molecular biology/molecular genetics, have experience with molecular genetics in Arabidopsis, morphological characterization of Arabidopsis mutants, and imagin techniques. Experience relevant to studies of receptro-ligand interaction and cell separation processes is appreciated.
Scholarship Open for International Students: No

Scholarship Description: A three-years position as Research Fellow (SKO 1109) in Molecular Genetics is available in the research group of Professor Reidunn B. Aalen at Department of Molecular Biosciences (IMBV), Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, University of Oslo. We are searching for a highly motivated and experienced person with a strong interest in developmental genetics in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana.

The researcher will be engaged on the project “Dissection and comparison of cell separation processes in plants” funded by the Research Council of Norway. The project focuses on molecular mechanisms of cell-to-cell communication through peptide ligand-receptor signaling in developmental processes. During growth and development cells in multicellular organisms can communicate by secreting ligands that bind to membrane-bound receptors of neighbouring cells. The model plant Arabidopsis thaliana has more than 400 such receptors, but only eight ligand-receptor pairs have so far been identified (Butenko et al., Trends Plant Sci, 2009). One of these is the small peptide Inflorescence Deficient In Abscission (IDA), which signals through the receptors HAESA (HAE) and HEASA-LIKE 2 (HSL2) (Stenvik et al., Plant Cell, 2008). Mutations in the IDA gene result in plants without normal floral organ loss (abscission). Gene expression patterns indicate that members of the gene family encoding IDA-LIKE (IDL) genes (IDL1-5) are involved in other developmental processes spanning from root architecture to reproduction.
