▾ Pravidla výběrového řízení (OTM-R)
Biologické centrum AV ČR, v. v. i. se zavázalo k dodržování Evropské charty výzkumných pracovníků a Kodexu chování pro přijímání výzkumných pracovníků a je držitelem prestižního ocenění HR Excellence in Research (HR Award). Při náboru vědeckých pracovníků dodržuje zásady otevřeného, transparentního výběrového řízení (OTM-R), což zajišťuje unifikovaný postup výběrového řízení na všech vědeckých ústavech Biologického centra.

Základními principy OTM-R jsou otevřenost, transparentnost a nediskriminace. Požadavky na uchazeče se liší v závislosti na povaze pracovní náplně a jsou vždy specifikovány v relevantním inzerátu s pracovní nabídkou. Inzeráty jsou zveřejňovány na těchto stránkách a na dalších specializovaných portálech. Výběrová řízení na vědecké pozice v Biologickém centru jsou dvoukolová (1. kolo: přihlášky a následný výběr vhodných kandidátů do 2. kola, 2. kolo: pohovory). Pro každé výběrové řízení je ustavena výběrová komise, která je minimálně tříčlenná, zahrnuje zástupce Personálního úseku a je genderově vyvážená. Všichni uchazeči jsou informováni o výsledku výběrového řízení a každé výběrové řízení se řídí platným nařízením EU o ochraně osobních údajů.

Popis pracovní pozice:

About the project: The project is titled ‘The role of trace elements in plant defence responses to pathogens’ under supervision of Dr. Filis Morina and Prof. Dr. Hendrik Küpper. Trace elements are essential for plant growth and development, and for plant-environment interactions. They are involved in plant metabolism as enzyme cofactors (e.g. Cu, Fe, Zn, Mn), in redox reactions and electron transport (Cu, Fe, Mn), gene expression and transcription factors (Zn). The project aims to elucidate the mechanisms of metal-regulated plant responses to biotic stress such as fungal pathogens using different model plants. To achieve this, plants will be grown under metal deficient (Zn, Mn,and Ni), optimal and metal excess conditions and exposed to pathogens under simulated environmental conditions. Currently, two model systems are established: Glycine max-hemibiotroph Phomopsis longicolla and Capsicum annuum-necrotoroph Botrytis cinerea. Fast responses to the pathogens will be monitored in vivo by measurements of element distribution and chlorophyll fluorescence kinetics by imaging techniques. Analyses of metabolome, metalloproteome and transcriptome are planned as well. Finally, candidate metal-regulated genes which promote plant immunity should be proposed. About the position: The prospective PhD student will be able to learn various molecular biology (biochemistry and genetics) and plant physiology techniques including metalloproteomic analysis by HPLC-DAD/ICP-MS of proteins, qPCR, QISH, microscopy techniques, gas exchange by IRGA, chlorophyll fluorescence kinetics, and analysis of antioxidative metabolism.

Doplňující informace:

The Department of Plant Biophysics and Biochemistry (PBB, headed by Prof. Hendrik Küpper) is part of the Institute of Plant Molecular Biology (IPMB) within the BC CAS, https://www.bc.cas.cz/en/). The department was recently awarded a 4.9 Mio € grant from the Czech Ministry of Education with co-financing from the EU (project ends in September 2022), which now allows for its expansion incl. additional team members and provides excellent facilities to perform cutting-edge research, including high-end research instruments (e.g. ICP-sfMS, µXRF). One expanding research direction within the Department is understanding the cross-talk mechanisms between metals and biotic stress response, and manipulation of nutrient availability to increase plant immunity to pathogens from the cell to whole organism level. The accepted applicant will be enrolled in PhD studies at the University of South Bohemia, Department of Experimental Plant Biology. Employment can start on 1 October 2020, or later depending on mutual agreement. The contract will be initially for one year (with 3-month probation period). Afterwards, the contract may be extended for up to four years total in which the PhD should be completed. Application and evaluation procedure: If interested, please submit the following documents and information as one complete pdf file via the "Reply" button below: • A cover letter (max. 1000 words) explaining why the candidate believes to be suitable for this post • A detailed CV including lists of publications if any, other achievements and previous professional experience • Academic transcripts and diplomas (scanned copies) • A list of at least two referees The position will be filled once the evaluation committee has found a well suitable candidate. We will invite potentially suitable candidates min. 3 days in advance for an interview to be held as a Skype videoconference, and candidates will be informed of the result max. 1 month after the interview. The BC CAS is a holder of the HR Excellence in Research Award. For more info about our open, transparent, merit-based recruitment of researchers policy, see www.bc.cas.cz/en/about-us/employment/.
