PhD scholarship in Discovery, Engineering, and Application of Transport Systems via Adaptive Laboratory Evolution
jobbeskrivelse:
The Adaptive Laboratory Evolution (ALE) Group harnesses the power of biology to self-optimize under selective pressures and applies this concept to obtain strains with useful industrial and applied phenotypes.
The goal of the ALE Group is to utilize laboratory evolution in the design and build phase of the strain construction process, as well as to uncover key unknowns in relevant microbial species, efficiently to discover and generate what is not possible with other approaches.
Responsibilities and tasks
The PhD candidate will (i) perform Adaptive Laboratory Evolution (ALE) studies using E. coli and other production organisms on an automated platform on various metabolites and environments, (ii) perform whole-genome resequencing of evolved strains and analyze the causality of confirmed mutations, (iii) characterize evolved and engineered mutant strains of interest phenotypically in a bench-top shake-flask and bioreactor environment, and (iv) report the findings and outcomes in peer-reviewed publications and patent applications with the goal of uncovering unknown transporters and their physiological and bioprocessing importance. The successful candidate is a talented, highly skilled, and self-motivating person who enjoys working in an international and interdisciplinary environment. Excellent bacterial culture techniques and analytical skills are essential. A physics or engineering background is highly desirable. Furthermore, previous experience with automated biotechnology platforms is required. Proficient command in oral and written English communication is a prerequisite.
Qualifications
Candidates should have a two-year master's degree (120 ECTS points) or a similar degree with an academic level equivalent to a two-year master's degree.
Candidates master's degree should be in engineering or a similar field.
