Take the next step in your research career and contribute to pioneering discoveries at the forefront of plant immunity, effector biology, and sustainable crop improvement.

The molecular interaction of pathogen effectors and plant immune receptors is key to understanding disease resistance. We use a diverse collection of wild Solanum species to identify and characterize immune receptors involved in resistance to potato pathogens, using functional assays with pathogen effectors. Within the framework of a TKI project entitled “Roots for resilience: Harnessing effectors to achieve resistance to Verticillium in potato”, a postdoctoral position is available, at W...
