The Leibniz Institute for Agricultural Engineering and Bioeconomy is a pioneer and a driver of bioeconomy research. We create the scientific foundation to transform agricultural, food, industrial and energy systems into a comprehensive bio-based circular economy. We develop and integrate techniques, processes and management strategies, effectively converging technologies to intelligently crosslink highly diverse bioeconomic production systems and to control them in a knowledge-based, adaptive and largely automated manner. We conduct research in dialogue with society - knowledge-motivated and application-inspired.

Subject to funding approval, the following position is to be filled for the three-year main phase of the joint project "Diversification of cropping systems for the one health of soils, plants and humans (DCropS4OneHealth)", which has been applied for within the framework of the BMBF call "Biodiversity and Health"

Postdoc Soil Microbiome and Fauna (m/f/d) (100 %)

In the field of agrobiodiversity, the DCropS4OneHealth project aims to identify causal relationships between how the diversification of crop production systems affects biodiversity in the agricultural landscape, health-relevant properties of field produce and human health. The position is assigned to ATB's Technology Assessment Department in close collaboration with the Departments Microbiome Biotechnology and Data Science in Bioeconomy. External partners are the Teaching and Research Station for Animal Breeding and Husbandry (LVAT), the University of Potsdam, the Leibniz Institute for Plant Biochemistry (IPB), the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) and the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK).

Your responsibilities

Presentation of project results at scientific conferences and stakeholder meetings, writing project reports and scientific publications

Your professional qualification profile

PhD in the field of microbial ecology or related subjects with specialisation on soil biodiversity
Knowledge and experience in designing and conducting field experiments
Knowledge and experience in microbiological analyses, including the extraction of nucleic acids, PCR techniques, modern sequencing technologies and bioinformatics and statistics
Knowledge in programming (e.g. with R, Python, Pearl) and mathematical modelling with special focus on the field of microbial ecology is desirable
Strong interest in interdisciplinary collaboration at the interface of agronomy, agricultural engineering, ecology, microbiology, biochemistry and the application of digital tools, especially artificial intelligence
Experience in scientific publishing
Very good written and spoken English skills, German skills are an advantage
Ability to work in a team and willingness to cooperate, reliability, flexibility, personal commitment and ability to work independently
