MSc Position
University of Alberta & Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada Lethbridge Research and Development Centre
An M.Sc. position is available through the University of Alberta in the laboratory of Dr. Stacy Singer (Lethbridge Research and Development Centre) with a starting date in the spring of 2027. The project would focus on the use of Agrobacterium-mediated transformation and gene editing in the forage legume, Onobrychis viciifolia, and the functional characterization of genes with potential involvement in abiotic and biotic stress resilience. This work would have a strong emphasis on plant tissue culture, molecular biology, biotechnology, and physiology.

PhD or MSc Position
University of Western Ontario, Department of Biology
A Ph.D. or M.Sc. position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Susanne Kohalmi. The preferred starting date is September 2026 but the date is negotiable. We are studying a small family of enzymes in Arabidopsis to understand how small sequence changes affect subcellular localization, substrate specificity, protein-protein interaction profiles or moonlighting functions. We are particularly interested to understand how these characteristics are linked to post-translational modifications and influenced by environmental conditions (https://www.uwo.ca/biology/faculty/kohalmi/). Interested candidates can send their CV and transcript to Dr. Kohalmi (skohalmi@uwo.ca).
