Synthetic Biology

Macquarie University is offering a fully funded PhD scholarship focused on synthetic biology and insect biotechnology, specifically engineering Black Soldier Flies (BSF) for advanced waste control and sustainability. The project is part of the ARC Centre of Excellence in Synthetic Biology and aims to develop novel engineering capabilities in BSF, transforming them into biomanufacturing agents that convert organic waste into valuable compounds. The research combines molecular biology, biochemistry, microbiology, and entomology, with hands-on training in gene editing, molecular cloning, and insect rearing. The successful candidate will join a collaborative research environment with access to state-of-the-art labs and networks, including potential commercial spin-outs. The scholarship covers a living allowance of AUD 39,700 per year and tuition fees, and is open to both domestic and international applicants. Applicants should have a Master’s degree in a relevant field, English proficiency, and experience in molecular biology. Preferred backgrounds include biochemistry, synthetic biology, microbiology, and entomology, with additional skills in gene editing and insect molecular methods. The application deadline is 31 October 2025. To apply, candidates should contact Associate Professor Maciej Maselko with a brief introduction and CV, and then submit a formal application through Macquarie University’s portal. This opportunity is ideal for ambitious students interested in pioneering sustainable biotechnology solutions for global waste challenges.
