PhD scholarship in Microbial Ecology and Evolution

jobbeskrivelse:

We offer a PhD fellowship at Department of Biotechnology and Biomedicine (DTU Bioengineering) at the Technical University of Denmark. The PhD project is part of the Center for Microbial Secondary Metabolites, CeMiSt and will be executed in the Bacterial Ecophysiology and Biotechnology Group in the Section for Microbial and Chemical Ecology.

CeMiSt is a Center of Excellence funded by the Danish National Research Foundation. The Center started 1st of January 2018 and will run for six years with an option for a four-year extension. The Center is based at the Technical University of Denmark and hosted by Department of Biotechnology and Biomedicine (DTU Bioengineering). Three DTU departments and 10 senior faculty participate in the Center and more than 15 PhD students and postdocs will be hired. The purpose of CeMiSt is to unravel the biological role of microbial secondary metabolites in natural microbiological communities. The Center is led by Professor Lone Gram.

We are seeking a candidate to study the influence of microbial secondary metabolites from marine bacteria in marine microbiomes using molecular and sequence based tools in the research field of microbial ecology and evolution. You will be involved in a fun PhD project on microbial natural products, with strong international connections, a productive scientific environment, and work-life balance.

Responsibilities and tasks


Your PhD project will contribute to our understanding of the role of secondary metabolites on microbial interactions and evolution in natural and engineered marine microbiomes with particular emphasis on marine roseobacters. You will explore the impact of secondary metabolites on microbial community assembly in marine systems and use amplicon and metagenome sequencing to understand the function of natural products on bacterial physiology and development.

Expected starting date: May/June 2019.


Qualifications

Candidates should have a two-year master's degree (120 ECTS points) or a similar degree with an academic level equivalent to a two-year master's degree.

Your experience within the following areas of microbiology will be an advantage
  • Microbial secondary metabolites
  • Microbial ecology and evolution, population biology
  • Molecular bacteriology
  • Amplicon sequencing
  • Bioinformatic analyses

Approval and Enrolment


The scholarship for the PhD degree are subject to academic approval, and the candidates will be enrolled in one of the general degree programmes of DTU. For information about the general requirements for enrolment and the general planning of the scholarship studies, please see the DTU PhD Guide. http://www.dtu.dk/english/Education/PhD/Rules/PhDguide

Assessment


The assessment of the applicants will be made by 15th April 2018 by Professor Lone Gram and assistant professors Mikkel Bentzon-Tilia and Mikael Lenz Strube

All interested candidates irrespective of age, gender, race, disability, religion or ethnic background are encouraged to apply.

The Center for Microbial Secondary Metabolites aims to establish what effect microbial secondary metabolites have on other microorganisms in their natural environment. We have traditionally perceived them as 'competition substances', but in natural environments they are rarely produced in quantities of antibiotic effect. The Center's hypothesis is that secondary metabolites constitute a network of signal molecules that directly affect gene expression, behaviour, and metabolism of the microorganisms and thus play a decisive role in the composition and function of microbiological communities. We will explore this in an interdisciplinary collaboration with the use of sequence-based, analytical-chemical, molecular, bioinformatic, and classic microbiological methods.

The Department of Biotechnology and Biomedicine (DTU Bioengineering) addresses challenges of societal and scientific importance within biotechnology, biomedicine, food technology and human health. The department is based on both basic and applied research and employs tools from biochemistry, biophysics, chemistry, cellular biology, immunology, microbial ecology and physiology, bioinformatics and bio-engineering. Research is conducted within three main areas: Microbial ecology and physiology, Industrial biotechnology and cell factories, and Biomedicine and health. The department has extensive collaboration with national and international research units and industries. DTU Bioengineering has approx. 180 employees, of which 2/3 is scientific staff. The department is located at DTU Lyngby Campus.

DTU is a technical university providing internationally leading research, education, innovation and scientific advice. Our staff of 6,000 advance science and technology to create innovative solutions that meet the demands of society, and our 11,200 students are being educated to address the technological challenges of the future. DTU is an independent academic university collaborating globally with business, industry, government and public agencies.
