比勒费尔德大学生物技术中心博士后招聘
2 Postdoc Positions (24-36 months) and
1 PhD position (36 months) in the field of
Metabolic Engineering of Microalgae (Chlamydomonas reinhardtii)
Recently, we have overcome an issue that limits transgene expression in the eukaryotic microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. This breakthrough has opened the possibility of using this model microalga for high-level genetic and metabolic engineering concepts including: the production of heterologous terpenoid products, modified fatty acids, and amino acid derivative high-value chemicals.
The Algae Biotechnology and Bioenergy Group (https://www.cebitec.uni-bielefeld.de/index.php/research-groups/274-algae-biotechnology-and-bioenergy) in the Center for Biotechnology (CeBiTec) at Bielefeld University is currently searching for motivated, high-level candidates to take on cutting-edge projects in the metabolic engineering of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. We are searching for candidates with experience in some of these topics: synthetic biology, cloning, microalgae, bacteria and/or yeast engineering, plant or moss engineering, yeast artificial chromosome design, and molecular biology. We are especially interested in candidates with keen interest in sustainable technologies who can take initiative to help drive forward these concepts in a highly dynamic, young, and enthusiastic research environment.
Your qualifications:
For Postdoc positions: a PhD in Biology, Molecular Biology or Biochemistry
For PhD: a Master’s degree in Biology, Molecular Biology or Biochemistry
Strong background in molecular biology (cloning; gene knock-down techniques;
mRNA/protein quantification) and metabolite analysis (GC-MS; HPLC).
Good command of the English language and high level of motivation
Your benefits:
The excellent infrastructure of the Center for Biotechnology at Bielefeld University with a superb working environment in which you have great opportunities to develop your ideas and accomplish your scientific goals in an international research group.
The participation in international workshops and conferences.
Generous salary for both PhD and Postdoc positions.
Bielefeld University is committed to support equal opportunity; we encourage applications from qualified women and persons with disabilities.
Your application:
Please send CV (including transcripts & certificates), personal statement of research background & motivation and the name as well as contact details of two referees as one pdf document per email to:
Prof. Dr. Olaf Kruse, Bielefeld University; Dep. of Biology/CeBiTec; Chair of Algae Biotechnology & Bioenergy;
olaf.kruse@uni-bielefeld.de.
Application deadline is 30.04.2018
