Welcome to the site of the Department of Plant Sciences

Here you can find information concerning the whole Department as well as links to the specific sites of our different research groups.

We seek candidates for an

assistant (tenure-track) or associate professor in molecular plant sciences

If you would like to study a fundamental question regarding the biology of photosynthetic organisms (including microorganisms), or microbes involved in plant-microbe interactions, we would love to hear from you.
