Announcement for Employing Outstanding Young Scientists
The Oil Crops Research Institute of Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences (OCRI-CAAS) was established in 1960 and is sponsored by the Ministry of Agriculture. As a national research institution, OCRI-CAAS has rapeseed, soybean, peanut, sesame and other special oilseed plants as its mandate crops with a mission to conduct basic and applied research which can promote development of oilseed industry. The current research themes at OCRI-CAAS include crop germplasm, genetics and breeding, genomics, genetic engineering, plant physiology, plant nutrition and fertilization, plant protection, safety assessment of transgenic plants, biochemistry, product processing, and quality safety management for oil crops. The institute is the only national research agency throughout the country specialized for oil crops with complementary disciplines. In the recent comprehensive evaluation of more than 1000 agricultural research institutions in China for the period of 2006-2010, OCRI-CAAS was among the top three best ones. In 2013, OCRI-CAAS was appointed as a member institute for the Scientific Innovation Program of CAAS supported by the central government. In order to accelerate the scientific innovation and promotion of OCRI-CAAS into a modern institution with international level, we are announcing research job positions for employing outstanding young scientists working on various disciplines.
