 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.

About Nanotechnology • Nanoscience is the study of materials that are in the nanoscale range (size scale range of 1 to 100nm). • Conversion of any material in nanoscale results in alteration of its physicochemical, biological, mechanical, optical, electronic, etc. properties which can be utilized for various useful activities. • Nanotechnologies are the design, characterization, production, and application of structures, devices, and systems by controlling shape and size on a nanometre scale. Current status of Nanotechnology in India • India ranks third in the number of researches in the field of nanotechnology after China and the USA. • This significant share in global nanotech research is a result of sharp focus by the Department of Science and Technology (DST) to research in the field in the country.  • Nanotechnology in India evolved through the years. The 9th Five-Year Plan (1998-2002) had mentioned for the first time that national facilities and core groups were set up to promote
