Postdoctoral in Plant Cell Biology: The University of California, Riverside’s Dr. Carolyn Rasmussen Lab is seeking a postdoctoral scholar for a 2+ year position. This role will explore the mechanisms of protein-protein and protein-cytoskeleton interactions that control plant division plane positioning. This opportunity is ideal for candidates with a background in biochemistry, plant genetics, and molecular biology.
