Six (06) PhD: Biomanufaturing, Novo Nordisk Foundation, Technical University of Denmark (DTU)
Six (06) PhD positions in Fermentation based Biomanufaturing at the Novo Nordisk Foundation, DTU Bioengineering
Research Field: Fermentation based Biomanufaturing
These positions are part of a large initiative granted by Novo Nordisk Foundation with a aim of establishing a Research Based World-Class Joint Education Program in Fermentation Based Biomanufactur-ing, which aims to integrate cell factory engineering with bioreactor engineering.
This educational program will be based on cutting edge research covering all aspects from fundamental physiology of production organisms, cell factories, synthetic biology & metabolic engineering to scale-up process technology, including downstream pro-cessing.
Organizations: DTU, DTU Chemical En-gineering, DTU Bioengineering and Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Biosus-tainability.
Project Titles
The 6 fully funded 3-year PhD positions are in the following projects:
- Scalable cell factories in membrane-based bioreactors
- Metabolic engineering of yeast cell factories for blood substitutes generation by microbial fermentation
- Metabolic engineering and bioprocess engineering
- Development of an innovative bioprocess for protease production in Bacillus subtilis by integrating cell factory optimization and bioreactor engineering
- Electrochemical metabolite sensors
- Process design, optimization and supply chain analysis for biotechnological production of xylitol
