PhD Researcher in Fungal Biotechnology Solutions
2 days ago
This PhD position offers a unique opportunity to tackle the critical challenge of fungal infections by developing innovative diagnostic methods and potential therapeutic agents using cutting-edge biotechnology.
Project Overview
The project will implement integrated fungal biotechnology to produce and characterize fungal-based molecules with potential immunomodulatory effects in cells of the human innate immune system. The findings will provide an initial indication of their potential health-promoting benefits, correlating the molecular structure of the oligomers based on a glycomic approach to their immune response in human cells.
Key Responsibilities
As a PhD student, you will be responsible for planning, running experiments, and evaluating the scientific outcome. You are also expected to communicate your results in different settings, such as group and division meetings at Chalmers, as well as external events like workshops and conferences. Additionally, you will develop scientific writing skills by preparing articles for publication in high-impact journals and participate in international conferences. You will also contribute to teaching and supervision of undergraduate students.
About the Division and Department
The project will take place at the Department of Industrial Biotechnology (IndBio) under the supervision of Assistant Professor Amparo Jimenez Quero. IndBio is an interdisciplinary group with approximately 45 international researchers focusing on microbiology, enzymology, and molecular biology. Our goal is to use renewable resources for sustainable production of fuels, chemicals, and materials, contributing to a sustainable society and circular economy. You will also have the opportunity to collaborate with groups at Stockholm University, KTH, and SciLifeLab in Stockholm.
Working with Us
As a PhD student at Chalmers, you will be part of a dynamic and multidisciplinary team, working on cutting-edge research projects. We offer a stimulating and supportive environment, with access to state-of-the-art infrastructure and expertise. Our goal is to provide you with the skills and knowledge necessary to succeed in your career, whether in academia or industry.
