We are looking for suitable candidates to apply for a INPhINIT fellowship. Our current interests are focused on understanding the evolution of plant virus interactions and on the role of crosskingdom RNAi in plant-fungus symbiotic interactions and their evolution. shorturl.at/0FOSx shorturl.at/UbbgT
