The School of Chemistry, Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology (CCEB) at NTU Singapore, in collaboration with Wageningen University & Research (WUR), is part of Singapore Indoor Farming System (SingFarm)—a CREATE-NRF programme focused on building a sustainable, data-driven food production model with strong industry relevance to contribute Singapore’s ambition in achieving 20 per cent local production of its fiber (vegetables, mushrooms etc.) by 2035. The candidate would be working in a multinational team at the forefront of Singapore’s agricultural innovation and food security.

The position of Research Associate will focus on developing advanced high throughput phenotyping tools for assessing the performance of genotypes under abiotic and biotic stresses that occur in indoor farming systems for vegetables (e.g. too high humidity, too high VPD, low light intensity, low or high water potential in the root environment, salinity, bacterial and fungal diseases) and to optimize per...
