ALT Diagram to illustrate the results of comparative transcriptomic analysis suggesting that the prototype BAP module arose in Marchantia polymorpha, experienced stepwise evolution, and became established as a mature regulatory system in seed plants.

ALT Isa is holding the certificate (Urkunde) of her new junior professor position (W1 tenure-track) surrounded by the Evolution of Plant Signaling Lab members: Sameena, Fran, Rania, Martha, Uli and Julian. They are standing in the courtyard of the ZMBP (Tübingen, Germany) under the bright sun.

ALT A postdoc position (E13 TV-L 100%, 3 years) is available in the Evolution of Plant Signaling Lab at the ZMBP (Tübingen, Germany) to work on the regulation of receptor kinases in the green lineage. Using an evolutionary approach and diverse model species including Marchantia, we will characterise the role of these signaling pathways in plant immunity and development. We are looking for a highly motivated, curiosity-driven candidate with a PhD in plant molecular biology, and experience in molecular biology and biochemistry. Excellent writing and communication skills in English and teamwork abilities are required. Interested applicants should send a single PDF file to Isabel Monte (isabel.monte@zmbp.uni-tuebingen.de) comprising a motivation letter describing your research interests, an up-to-date CV, and names of two references before 31st October 2023. The position is immediately available, but the starting date is flexible (preferably by the end of 2023).
