Postdoctoral Position in Agronomy (Fertilizer Forms and Greenhouse Gas Measurements)

About the role

The AgroBioSciences (AgBS) program at Mohammed VI Polytechnic University seeks a dynamic postdoctoral researcher to investigate newly developed fertilizer forms, their impact on soil pH, native microbiomes, and greenhouse‑gas emissions. The role combines controlled‑environment and field experiments with data analysis and scientific communication.

Key responsibilities

• Design and execute experiments to assess fertilizer effects on soil chemistry and microbiome composition.
• Measure greenhouse‑gas fluxes in both laboratory and field settings.
• Analyze data, interpret results, and prepare high‑quality manuscripts for peer‑reviewed journals.
• Mentor master’s and PhD students involved in the project.

Required profile

• Earned doctorate in Agronomy or a closely related field.
• Hands‑on experience with greenhouse‑gas measurement techniques.
• Proven ability to interpret complex datasets and produce scientific publications.
• Experience supervising undergraduate or graduate students.

Required skills

• Greenhouse gas measurement
• Soil pH analysis
• Microbiome analysis
• Controlled and field experiment implementation
• Data interpretation
• Scientific manuscript writing
