We have a Postdoc fellowship available on Characterization and visualization of root cell anatomy in tree roots. The postdoc will work with me and @srobertgroup.bsky.social #SwedishUniversityofAgriculturalSciences @umeaplantsciencecentre.se Please share!

Eggs from Green lacewing (Chrysopidae) was not my first thought when I saw this on #Pinus sylvestris needles cut down from a branch from a 70-year-old tree! Eyes focused on plant- #fungal interactions 😊 #boreal #forest

@stefhupperts.bsky.social and I are recruiting an MSc student starting in summer/fall 2027 to quantify links between fire regime, canopy type, and ecosystem nitrogen balance in boreal forests. Full ad and relevant links below.

Together with Mathieu Hanemian, we're searching for an undergrand student (Master or Erasmus internship, final-year engineering student) to explore the effect of intercropping on the soil microbiota. If this sounds interesting to you, please reach our with your CV and a motivation letter!

One more week to apply!
