(03) Postdoctoral Fellowship Position

Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: Research assistant: Environmental Physiology of Lettuce

Within vertical farming, tipburn is a marked issue that can significantly decrease yields and profit for these high intensity operations. The prevailing theory is that tipburn is caused by a calcium deficiency in the tips of newly emerging leaves. Furthermore, it is thought that, because calcium moves passively within the plant through the transpiration stream, tipburn occurs because the young inner leaves of a lettuce plant do not sufficiently transpire. However, this theory has not yet been sufficiently tested in a rigorous model. We are developing a physiological model that has the  capacity to predict tipburn, but experiments are quite large and time consuming, so we need a dedicated research assistant to maintain ongoing experiments. Your tasks include setting up, conducting, maintaining and harvesting lettuce plants from climate chambers; building and maintaining experimental equipment (instrumentation); and organizing data.
