Millions of years of evolution have perfected plant water transport, making it a fascinating subject of research. In our research group, we want to understand exactly how the water-conducting vessels work and how they are "built" by the plants.
During the 6-week internship in Dr. Schneider's research group, you will have the opportunity to dive into the cell biology of water-conducting vessels in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. The main methods to be learned range from the basic handling of plants in a sterile laboratory environment, cultivation, and genotyping of plants, crosses, and transformation of genetic constructs as well as their investigation using microscopy and automated image processing and quantification.
After this internship, you will be ideally prepared for a job as a research assistant in cell and plant biology in a scientific (university) or industrial environment.
