Saskatoon, Canada National Research Council Canada Full time

Monitoring plant health and productivity necessitates visualizing internal structures that constitute tissues and organs. Yet, the analysis of internal plant structures often demands extensive laboratory efforts, limiting the ability to conduct vast, rapid, and quantitative assessments. Our primary objective is to advance the development of a high-throughput platform for plant anatomical phenotyping, termed “anatomics,” to support rapid assessment of an array of commercially-valued plant structures (e.g., seeds, grains, stems, roots) in a diverse panel of Canadian grain and field crops. Supported by artificial intelligence, this platform accelerates existing methodologies, propelling anatomic phenotyping into the “omics” era. The successful postdoctoral applicant will be instrumental in creating optimized high-throughput workflows, leveraging deep learning to enhance NRC's capabilities in plant anatomics. The generated data will facilitate efforts across sectors to improve crop resilience and yield under the stresses of our changing climate.

**About Saskatoon**:
Saskatoon is the perfect city for people who enjoy the natural world, a diverse cultural environment and want to find a place they can call home. A wonderful place to raise a family, Saskatoon enjoys one of the lowest costs of living among major cities in Canada.

Located in the heart of the prairies, the city is home to about 300,000 people, has one of the most diversified economies in the country, producing products and services that are in demand throughout the world. With a solid infrastructure, natural resources, research and development facilities, and a well-educated workforce, the Saskatoon region is continually creating new opportunities for business and individuals.

There are six dominant industries within the region, including mining/energy, manufacturing, transportation, life sciences, construction and agriculture. Wages in the Saskatoon region are competitive when compared with the rest of the province and country. In large part due to low housing costs and good wages, people in Saskatoon have a good standard of living compared to more expensive cities.
