1 Senior Project Associate vacancy at Institute of Himalayan Bioresource Technology (IHBT)
Institute of Himalayan Bioresource Technology (IHBT) invites eligible candidates to attend a walk-in interview on 17-04-2026 for filling 1 post of Senior Project Associate.
| Post Name | Senior Project Associate |
| Project Name | Deciphering the stress- induced and chloroplast-triggered programmed cell death in Arabidopsis thaliana (GAP-0340) |
| Project Description | This CSIR-IHBT research project investigates the molecular pathways of plant survival and senescence. The study focuses on deciphering the stress-induced and chloroplast-triggered programmed cell death (PCD) in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. Rephrasing is done to understand how the chloroplast acts as a sensory organelle, sending signals that initiate a controlled cellular suicide under extreme environmental conditions. The research aims to identify the specific genetic markers and signaling molecules involved in this process, providing a deeper understanding of how plants manage damage and allocate resources during drought, heat, or pathogen attacks. |
