- Biotechnology
- Metabolic engineering
- Microbiology
- Genetics
- Computational biology
- Bioinformatics
- Computer science
- Mathematics
- Physics
Applicants having experience in the following areas will have advantage: experimental systems biology, bioreactor fermentations and genetic engineering of Escherichia coli or other microorganisms; mathematical modeling of metabolic networks, computational strain design and model-based metabolic engineering; theory and algorithms of mathematical optimization (in particular, linear and mixed-integer linear programming) programming in MATLAB (and JAVA)
Applications:
- Applicants must send their applications by February 20, 2017, though there is no strict deadline and the call is open until all positions are filled.
- Applicants must prepare a single pdf fileand must include:
- Application letter
