PhD Position in Microbial Biotechnology
Short description:
Microbial biotechnology and its industrial applications in biomedicine: development of products of interest for our health, especially medicine and other applications.
PhD project outline:
The selected candidate will have the opportunity to study complex enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of medically important antibiotics and other compounds of industrial importance. We are exploring the activity of complex enzymatic systems from selected microorganisms that mediate intriguing biosynthetic steps with the aim of engineering novel pathways leading to advanced industrial processes and/or novel biologically active compounds. Metabolic/biosynthetic engineering and synthetic biology approaches will be applied for this purpose. The work will be carried out in close collaboration with an industrial partner. Applicants with background in molecular biology, biochemistry, microbiology or related science disciplines who are interested in interdisciplinary research are particularly welcomed.
