The #MultiStress SP1 -Martin Komainda, @hannahschneider.bsky.social (@leibnizipk.bsky.social) & myself- will disentangle above-belowground #carbon & #nutrient allocation in response to single/multiple stresses in #maize. Welcome @withanage.bsky.social & @stevensenanabulya.bsky.social in the SP1 team

Happy to finally announce that our @dfg.de Research Unit #MultiStress was finally approved for funding. So happy, to be part of this amazing team led by R. Rötter @uni-goettingen.de: Core field sites at @agrarunigoe.bsky.social & @JOOUST (Kenya) to unravel joint biotic & abiotic stresses on #maize🍾

Congratulations @Elvira Sari Dewi: you prepared an excellent presentation for your #PhD defense, and Reimund Rötter, Tim Beissinger & me enjoyed our scientific exchange during your defense.
One of the rare global #Sorghum #MultiStress studies targeting #salinity stress: well deserved achievement!

and now after subproject 1 the next #JobAlert: SP2 of #MultiStress @uni-goettingen.de will offer a KAAD-funded #PhDopportunity for an East African scholar interested in ecophysiological stress responses in #maize detected by multi-spectral imaging
Take your chance an apply #AcademicJobs #scholarship

Next #job hire: Our own PhD position within #MultiStress to be funded as KAAD scholarship @unituebingen.bsky.social is out: You're East African scholar interested in #maize #root & #rhizosphere traits +their response to #biotic & #abiotic stress? Ready to perform work in #Germany & #Kenya? APPLY NOW

Great news: the #MultiStress team passed the review process - so we now search PhD candidates for #KAAD scholarships for our project on co-occuring biotic & abiotic stress in #maize. First, our central project @uni-goettingen.de @agrarunigoe.bsky.social needs sbd. highly interested in #metabolomics

Welcome to @CUBiosciences student - Callum Wareham - who joins my lab today on a @CUROPcardiffuni placement! #MULTISTRESS #summerofparasites
