Job Description

Thesis Subject

A doctoral position is available at the Montpellier Institute of Plant Sciences (IPSiM). The goal of this project, funded by the ANR, is to better understand plant perception and early signaling in response to osmotic signals. To this end, we use live-cell microscopy, biochemistry, and genetics to study the role of membrane nanodomains in signaling events in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana.
