 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.

3-year Postdoc Position in Molecular Microbiology Quorum-sensing control of phage-host interactions Post doctorate

 3-year Postdoc Position in Molecular Microbiology 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
