The Earlham Institute has been awarded funding by the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation to develop Protist Omics at Scale, a three-year international methods-development programme.

Working as part of a team led by Dr Hassan Salem,you will use comparative and population genomic approaches to reconstruct the origin, maintenance, and evolutionary consequences of symbiosis in beetles.

Working as part of a team led by Dr Hassan Salem, and in collaboration across the Department of Molecular Microbiology, you will lead the biochemical and structural characterisation of host traits and proteins central to symbiosis in beetles.

Working as part of a team led by Dr Hassan Salem, you will investigate the developmental basis of symbiosis in beetles, focusing on how symbiotic organs form, mature, and are maintained across host life stages.

The Wenbo Ma Lab is seeking two highly motivated postdoctoral researchers (one experimental & one bioinformatics) to join our team. Funded by the ERC-Advanced grant “sRNA-Defense”, these positions focus on understanding fundamental biology of small RNA-based plant immunity and applying this knowledge to crop disease resistance.
