Greater Adelaide SA, Australia The University of Adelaide Full time

**Level A ($75,888 to $106,040) per annum plus an employer contribution of up to 17% superannuation applies.**

**Fixed-term position available for 36 months.**

**Be part of the ARC Centre of Excellence in Plants for Space (P4S) and contribute to world-leading research projects.**

This role will develop tools and technologies needed to advance _Wolffia _as a synthetic biology chassis. These tools will be used to explore cell wall biosynthesis and structure and deliver cell walls optimised for growth and consumption.

The tasks of the Postdoctoral Researcher will include:

- Developing new methods for transient and stable transformation (including DNA free, such as virus-mediated and/or nanoparticles)

Outputs will include:

- Validated methods for transient and stable transformation of Wolffia
- A testable model describing cell wall structure and composition during vegetative growth in Wolffia (or closely related aquatic species)
- Aquatic plants with altered cell wall composition that can be used for testing in synthetic gut assays with P4S collaborators.

**This exciting role will contribute to ARC Centre of Excellence in Plants for Space’s goal to re-imagine plant design and bio-resource production to support long-term habitation in Space and solve sustainability challenges on Earth.**

**To be successful you will need**:

- Demonstrated skills in plant molecular biology, synthetic biology and bioinformatics.
- Demonstrated skills in tissue culture and developing plant transformation methods, including CRISPR-based gene editing.
- Fluency in written and spoken English, with an ability to communicate scientific ideas to an expert audience.
- A strong work ethic, and the ability to work well independently, and as a member of a broader team, including with industrial partners.
- Commitment to the principles of equity, diversity and inclusion.

**Desirable characteristics**:

- Demonstrated understanding of plant cell walls or glycobiology.
- Demonstrated skills in microscopy.
