Position Summary

Michigan State University's Plant Resilience Institute (PRI) is seeking a highly motivated and skilled postdoctoral researcher to lead a project focused on discovering a new class of regulatory metabolites and their nuclear signaling mechanisms that govern plant resilience. The project integrates bioinformatics, molecular genetics, protein structural prediction, and experimental validation to investigate their roles in gene regulation and s tress response. The postdoctoral researcher will lean efforts in gene characterization, reverse genetics and ligand screening using phenotyping and molecular genetic approaches. This is a unique opportunity to contribute to conceptual advances in plant stress hormone biology, while building tools and resources of broad utility to the plant science community. The successful candidate will join a highly interdisciplinary team led by Dr. Gregg Howe, with collaborators across PRI.

Key Responsibilities:

Design and execute reverse genetic experiments (e.g., CRISPR/Cas9 knockouts and GFP-tagged overexpressors) to evaluate the functional roles of prioritized candidate genes
Develop and apply protein turnover assays using fluorescent-tagged constructs and metabolite treatments
Collaborate with PRI labs on phenotyping (e.g., drought, heat, insect resistance) and transcriptome analysis
Analyze protein structure using AlphaFold and guide mutagenesis strategies for dominant gain-of-function alleles
Coordinate with internal collaborators on compound screening and ligand-binding assays
Contribute to data interpretation, manuscript preparation, and dissemination of findings through publications and conferences

Equal Employment Opportunity Statement

All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, citizenship, age, disability or protected veteran status.

Required Degree

Doctorate -Plant Biology, Molecular Biology, Biochemistry and Genetics

Minimum Requirements

Ph.D. in Molecular Biology, Plant Biology, Genetics, Biochemistry, or a related field by the time of appointment
Demonstrated experience with plant transformation, reverse genetics, and phenotypic analysis
Familiarity with gene expression analysis and confocal microscopy
Strong communication, organizational, and team collaboration skills

Desired Qualifications

Experience with phytohormone biology or regulatory metabolite research
Familiarity with compound screening or receptor-ligand interaction assays
Background in bioinformatics or phylogenomics a plus

Required Application Materials

Please submit a cover letter detailing research experience and motivation for joining the PRIME project, a curriculum vitae and contact information for three references.
