Jobbeschreibung

THE GRADUATE SCHOOLThe International Max Planck Research School (IMPRS) on Understanding Complex Plant Traits using Computational and Evolutionary Approaches is a local collaboration between the Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research (MPIPZ) and the Universities in Cologne and Düsseldorf, Germany. The IMPRS was established in 2002 and offers an international PhD programme in English. Students are closely supervised by an advisory committee, receive training in professional skills and are supported to share their scientific insights.10+ Fully Funded PhD Student Positions in the Computational & Experimental Plant Sciences The mission of our IMPRS is to study fundamental biological processes in plants and to create knowledge and material that can empower innovative plant breeding. More than 30 research groups study regulatory networks controlling fundamental traits such as reproductive development, organ geometry and growth, innate immunity and microbiome effects on plant performance. They apply and develop a broad range of interdisciplinary technologies ranging from genetics and genomics to structural biochemistry, advanced imaging and computational modelling in established and novel model species. All available projects are detailed at Website where applicants can also find more information about the host groups. You are a highly qualified and motivated student from any nationality and hold, or expect to hold, a Master’s degree in a related subject. You have a proved track record of academic and research excellence and are fluent in written and spoken English.
