PhD in Antimicrobial Resistance, Environmental Metagenomics and Microbial Dark Matter at University College Dublin University College Dublin in Ireland

University College Dublin’s MicroBiomica Lab is advertising a fully funded PhD opportunity in microbial genomics , bioinformatics , metagenomics , and antimicrobial resistance as part of the DAFM-funded ADDRESS programme . The project will investigate antimicrobial resistance, environmental metagenomics, and microbial dark matter. The research combines wet-lab and computational work, giving the successful candidate experience across the full workflow: field sampling, culturomics, long-read seque...

Umeå University’s Department of Clinical Microbiology invites applications for a PhD position in medical science with a specialization in bioinformatics. The research project focuses on tracking strain-wide differences within human gut bacteria species during early childhood, aiming to improve understanding of adaptive mechanisms in gut microbiota and guide next-generation microbiota-aided therapies. The project investigates gut microbiota community development in children, analyzing longitudina...

Applications are open for the EMBL-EBI-Sanger Postdoctoral (ESPOD) programme, a collaborative postdoctoral opportunity between the European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI) and the Wellcome Sanger Institute. The programme is designed for researchers interested in bioinformatics, computational biology, biology, data science, and related areas. ESPOD projects combine wet-lab and dry-lab experience, and applicants can choose from a list of available projects or propose their own project, provide...

Funded MSc/PhD opportunity at the University of Winnipeg , Department of Biology, focused on hunting giant viruses in Lake Winnipeg and studying the aquatic virome associated with algal blooms and their infecting viruses. The project combines fieldwork , molecular biology , and bioinformatics/computational analysis . Students will board a research vessel about three times per year to collect samples from Lake Winnipeg, then help map an entire aquatic viral community that is not widely known. Thi...

Open postdoc position in the group of Luis E. Escobar at Virginia Tech. The research focus is bioinformatics and ecoinformatics, making this a strong fit for candidates interested in computational biology, ecological data analysis, and interdisciplinary research at the interface of biology, computer science, environmental science, and statistics. The post explicitly states that the position is in the announcer’s own group, so this is an academic-led opening. Virginia Tech is the host institution...
