Eligible candidate may Apply as soon as possible.

 

(01) Postdoctoral Fellowship Position

Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title:  Postdoc on Ultra-high resolution MRI of food soft matter

We invite applications for a post-doctoral position of 1 year, with possibility of extension to 2 years depending on performance, based at the Laboratory of Biophysics at Wageningen University (WU). The work is in close collaboration with partners within the Dutch NMR consortium (uNMR-NL), including Utrecht University (UU) and the University Medical Center (UMC) of Utrecht. The focus of this position is on the implementation and validation of microimaging methods at high-/ultra-high-field NMR spectrometers (14-28 T), to boost sensitivity, spatial and chemical resolution in studies of small-volume biological and food soft materials. The goal of this collaborative project is to achieve multi-scale structural information including cellular scale, not accessible at lower/intermediate magnetic fields, to ultimately aid more sensitive characterization of structure and dynamics in a range of biologically-relevant materials in soft matter and food science.

Deadline : Open Until Filled

(02) Postdoctoral Fellowship Position

Postdoc summary/title: Postdoc Soil Health in Tropical Agroecosystems (postdoctoral)

We seek to strengthen our team with an outstanding postdoctoral researcher with strong expertise in soil health assessment and knowledge of tropical soils and agroecosystems. Understanding and improving soil health across cropping systems and regions in the global south is a key focus for achieving sustainability goals, including food security, food safety, greenhouse gas mitigation and climate adaptation. Soil health is a complex, abstract concept that cannot be measured directly. It requires indicator frameworks and methods that can be used to assess and interpret (changes in) multiple soil functions, like nutrient cycling, water regulation, carbon stabilization, disease and pest control and contaminant mitigation. However, the applicability of such indicators at scale, their interpretation in terms of soil functions, and their adaptation to different cropping systems and contexts remains a challenge. In particular, soil biodiversity and soil organic matter play a fundamental role in many soil processes underpinning soil health. Yet, our ability to assess and interpret (early) indicators of soil biodiversity and soil organic matter dynamics are limited. Finally, the linkages between soil health and other agronomic (e.g., crop yields, fertilizer use efficiency) and environmental goals (e.g., greenhouse gas emissions, climate resilience) are often assumed but lack scientific scrutiny.  

Deadline : Mon 3 April 2023
