(03) Postdoctoral Fellowship Position

Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: Postdoctoral Associate in Agricultural Ecology

An interdisciplinary team at Virginia Tech is seeking a post-doctoral researcher to lead a new project focused on the agroecology of apple orchards. The project aims to improve orchard sustainability by linking plant and microbial diversity in the orchard understory to soil health and improved fruit quality, including nutrient and polyphenol composition. We focus in particular on the production of high-quality fruit for the growing craft cider industry, which represents an important value-added market in Virginia that connects growers directly to consumers. We will combine on-farm case studies across Virginia, ecological experiments in our research orchard at Virginia Tech, and survey-based socio-economic research to understand how fruit quality is shaped by the orchard agroecosystem and perceived by both consumers and cider-makers. The post-doc will have their primary home in the Whitehead Lab (speciesinteractions.com) with extensive collaboration and co-mentorship from the Igwe Lab (igwelab.com) and Larochelle Lab (https://aaec.vt.edu/people/faculty/larochelle-catherine.html).
