Department of Forest Genetics and Plant PhysiologyThe Department of forest genetics and plant physiology is part of Umeå Plant Science Centre (UPSC, https://www.upsc.se/) which is a centre of excellence for experimental plant research and forest biotechnology in Northern Sweden. Our mission is to perform excellent and innovative basic research and generate knowledge that benefits forestry, agriculture, environment and society. We work across a wide range of disciplines in plant science reaching from cell biology to ecophysiology and from basic research to industrial applications. Our common goal is to understand the plants’ ability to grow, adapt and acclimate to a changing world and how we can breed better plants.About the positionThe Umeå Plant Science Centre (UPSC) is a world-leading research center in plant physiology and forest genetics. Its research activities generate large volumes of data that require bioinformatics resources and software for analysis. UPSC is a collaboration between the Department of Plant Physiology at Umeå University and the Department of Forest Genetics and Plant Physiology at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU). Within SLU, a university-wide infrastructure currently provides bioinformatics support: the SLU Bioinformatics Infrastructure (SLUBI). As SLUBI will be phased out by the end of 2026, a bioinformatics position is being established within the UPSC Bioinformatics Platform (UPSCb). UPSCb is part of the broader bioinformatics environment in Umeå, most of which is co-located with UPSC, comprising more than thirty professionals working for both local and national organizations (for example, SciLifeLab NBIS).In your role within the UPSC Bioinformatics Platform (UPSCb), you will provide bioinformatics support and servi…BioinformatikerCell- och molekylärbiologer m.fl.
