Quorum-sensing control of phage-host interactions
Department of Biology
Faculty of Science
University of Copenhagen
A 3-year postdoctoral position is available at the Section for Biomolecular Sciences, Dept. of Biology. The position is funded by a Novo Nordisk Foundation research grant “Understanding bacteriophage behavior through the lens of the bacterial host population” to Associate Professor Sine Lo Svenningsen
Area of Research
Our starting point is a temperate phage of the fish pathogen Vibrio anguillarum that is strongly regulated by the host quorum-sensing system. The project aims to understand the molecular mechanism underlying quorum-sensing control of this phage, and to develop new tools for detection of quorum-sensing-controlled phage-host interactions in general. The project will be carried out in close collaboration with Prof. Mathias Middelboe in the Marine Biology Section of the Department of Biology. The postdoc’s duties will include experimental research, student supervision, and can also include teaching. The post may also include performance of other duties.
Further information on the Department is available at www.bio.ku.dk. Inquiries about the position can be made to Sine Lo Svenningsen (SLS@bio.ku.dk).
The position is open from 1 August 2023 or as soon as possible thereafter.
