- Two Postdoctoral Researcher opportunities at University of Kentuckyby Salmeron Cortasa, Montserrat on September 19, 2025 at 1:07 pm
Two Postdoctoral Researcher Positions in Cropping System ModelingDrs. Hanna Poffenbarger and Montse Salmeron in the Department of Plant and Soil Sciences at the University of Kentucky seek two postdoctoral scientists to begin in fall of 2025. The postdoctoral scholars will: (1) investigate factors affecting cover crop mixture performance and their impact on subsequent crops using a new intercrop module in DSSAT, (2) evaluate and improve DSSAT-CROPGRO model performance for simulation of crop nitrogen dynamics, biological nitrogen fixation, and seed composition. The postdoctoral scholars will have the opportunity to work with robust and readily available experimental datasets as part of [...]
