We’re recruiting a Legume Crop Physiology and Phenotyping Postdoctoral Researcher to help identify soybean and lupin varieties suited to current and future climates in central-northern Europe and the UK.
Through the Horizon Europe/UKRI 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐅𝐞𝐞𝐃 project, you’ll combine controlled-environment experiments at our The Advanced Plant Growth Centre (APGC) with physiological measurements and high-throughput phenotyping, linking crop resilience with yield and nutritional quality.
If you have a background in plant physiology, phenotyping or a related discipline, and enjoy working with plants and complex datasets, I’d be pleased to hear from you.
Full-time, 2.5-year position
Apply by 3 November 2026
Working with partners across Europe, you will also have opportunities to develop new collaborations (e.g., the National Alternative Protein Innovation Centre (NAPIC) and your own research profile.
