About this position

Fully Funded PhD Position in Microbiology and Antimicrobial Resistance

Maynooth University in Ireland is offering a PhD project on the evolution of antimicrobial resistance in Enterobacterales across the One Health framework. The research is part of the ADDRESS Project and will use in vitro experiments, freshwater microcosm experiments, and genomics to investigate how resistance develops and spreads across connected environmental and health settings.

The project is associated with the Department of Biology and the Kathleen Lonsdale Institute for Human Health Research, under the supervision of Prof. Fiona Walsh. It is suited to candidates interested in microbiology, molecular biology, bacteriology, antimicrobial resistance, environmental microbiology, One Health, and genomic approaches to infectious disease research.

Applicants should hold a first-class or 2.1 honours BSc, or an MSc, in microbiology, molecular biology, or a related discipline. Knowledge of bacteriology is essential, and applicants must be resident in Ireland.
