  NIFS promotes the interdisciplinary development of fusion science by dividing the challenge of realizing fusion energy into several themes and generalizing the problems involved in each theme. We aim to deepen collaboration with universities and other institutions in Japan and abroad through interdisciplinary initiatives that share cutting-edge concerns and issues in various academic fields. By promoting a brain circulation that encompasses a wider range of fields than ever before, we hope to enable the sustainable promotion of long-term fusion development research.
  As a research base for such interdisciplinary developments in fusion science, NIFS is promoting the “Micro Collective Phenomena in Ultra-High Temperature Plasma and Fusion Science” Project (hereinafter referred to as the “MCPoP Project”) and developing, operating, and expanding research platforms related to cutting-edge research, including the MCPoP Project. We are looking for talented individuals who can contribute to these efforts. At NIFS, ten interdisciplinary joint research teams called “Units” have come together under common research themes. NIFS is developing the software side of the Units and the hardware side of the research platforms in close collaboration with each other. In this recruitment, we are seeking outstanding researchers who possess creativity and strong communication skills, can lead the interdisciplinary development of fusion science, and can contribute to the promotion of the MCPoP Project and/or the development, operation, and expansion of the research platforms.

• Background of the recruitment and description of the project

  Symbioses are fundamental to life on Earth. The most ancestral association between plants and fungi emerged around 450 mya and is now so widespread among terrestrial plant species that it fundamentally supports global ecosystems, as well as crop productivity and sustainability. Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi belong to the Glomeromycotina subphylum, and facilitate plant mineral uptake from the soil in exchange for plant-derived organic carbon. The establishment of functional symbioses relies on the fine-tuned orchestration of signals to achieve coordination of the two interacting organisms. While considerable understanding of plant signalling mechanisms have been gained in recent years, we know near to nothing about fungal signalling components. To close this gap in knowledge, we wish to reciprocally elucidate how the fungus undergoes reprogramming to engage with its host rice.
  
  We will use ‘omics’ approaches to comprehensively characterise transcriptional and translational activities of different functional units of the fungal mycelium in asymbiosis and symbiosis; we also aim to establish a stable transformation protocols to enable functional studies of gene leads. The rice blast fungus Magnaorpthe oryzae will be used as a genetically tractable, comparative root-fungal system.
  
  Keywords: Arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis, plant-fungal signalling, Rhizophagus irregularis, Magnaporthe oryzae, spatial transcriptomics and proteomics, transformation of R. irregularis

  Detailed job description Deputy Team Director:
  The successful candidate will have three tasks, (1) leading a competitive research programme, (2) managing the Team duties and ensuring the continuous communication with the Team Director, and (3) co-supervising the research activities and lab management duties of the Lab Technician together with the Team Director (UP).
  
  (1)The successful candidate is required to have a strong background in molecular biology, in particular genomics and ‘single cell’ type of analyses of fungi and/or plants. The aim of this research is to determine the transcriptional and translational activities of functional units of the Rhizophagus irregularis mycelium during asymbiosis and symbiosis, the latter extending to the holistic understanding of the corresponding plant responses. Magnaporthe oryzae will be used as a comparative biotrophically infecting rice-root fungal system. The candidate is expected to independently work towards the establishment of protocols for spatial transcriptomics and proteomics.
  (2)The successful candidate is required to have sufficient seniority to adopt managerial responsibility for the running of the lab. They will be charged with managing the Team regarding the daily functioning of the lab, including communication with RIKEN administration, exchange and coordination with other Team Directors, ensuring compliance with health and safety rules, supervising the Technical Staff for the ordering of consumables and organizing of the daily lab routines, etc. Prior experience in Team/Lab management is advantageous.
  (3)The successful candidate is required to have sufficient seniority to supervise the Technical Staff’s project on establishing a transformation protocol for Rhizophagus irregularis. Prior experience in mentoring is advantageous.
