About us
The VIB-UGent Center for Plant Systems Biology (PSB, www.psb.vib-ugent.be ) is a world-leading plant science institute with the mission to unravel the biology of plants and use the insights gained to improve the sustainability of agriculture and the climate change resilience of crops. The Maere lab at PSB (http://www.maerelab.be ) is active in the fields of computational biology, evolutionary genomics and plant systems biology. Current research topics include developing a single-plant omics strategy to unravel the molecular wiring of plant phenotypes, studying dosage balance-sensitive genes in plants, and modeling the evolution of transcriptional systems in silico.
We are currently looking for a talented postdoc to join our team in the context of a project funded by the Research Foundation Flanders (FWO), in which we will model the effects of whole-genome duplication on the evolution of transcriptional systems.Project description
