 Ph.D. position in algal biotechnology PhD position - 3 years (m/f/d) Algal biotechnology Leipzig University, Faculty of Life Sciences, Institute of Biology, Plant Physiology group of Prof. Severin Sasso, Leipzig, Germany Start: 1 July 2024 Deadline: 7 May 2024 The Plant Physiology group at the Institute of Biology, Leipzig University, offers a Ph.D. position (Promotionsstelle) starting from 1 July 2024, subject to formal funding approval. Activities and responsibilities The unicellular alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii secretes substantial amounts of glycolate under photorespiratory conditions (Taubert et al., Plant Biotechnol. J. 17, 1538-1546 (2019)). As glycolate is an important industrial chemical, its production in a photosynthetic microorganism opens up the long-term potential to establish a biotechnological industry based on renewable resources. The aim of a new third-party-funded project is to improve glycolate secretion. For this purpose, we want to use physical mutagenesis (e.

 10 PhD Fully Funded Positions in Europe in Environmental and Analytical Chemistry, Microbial Ecology, Ecotoxicology, Molecular Biology 10 PhD Fully Funded Positions in Europe in Environmental and Analytical Chemistry, Microbial Ecology, Ecotoxicology, Molecular Biology: Improving monitoring and environmental risk assessment of pharmaceuticals, antimicrobial resistance and pathogens from terrestrial to aquatic environments: Pharm-ERA context; Pharmaceutical  micro-pollutantsare chemicals used for human and animal health care that are found everywhere including in soil, water and sediment. This chemical contamination is usually associated with  microbiological contamination  (by microorganisms and/or their genetic material) from humans, animals and the environment. Both PhACs and microbiological contaminants contribute to the development and dispersal of  antimicrobial resistances and pathogens  in terrestrial and aquatic environments, generating  adverse effects and risks on biodiversi

 Fully Funded PhD Position in Mapping checkpoint receptor function in Th17 cells in melanoma Application Deadline: 30 March 2024 Country: United Kingdom Award Summary 100% of home tuition fees paid and an annual stipend of £18,622. Overview Checkpoint inhibitors has been a standard of care for melanoma patients but approximately 30% of patients respond to these therapies. In order to improve therapy response, it is important to study the phenotype and function of the various immune cells that are involved in tumour immunity within the tumour microenvironment. In this PhD studentship, we aim to investigate how PD-1 regulates a type of immune cell known as CD4+ T helper cell that produces IL-17 cytokine (Th17 cells). We will investigate whether Th17 cells contribute or inhibit tumour immunity in experimental murine models of melanoma currently available within the laboratory within the context of checkpoint blockade. The student will learn cellular immunology techniques, biochemical and
