PhD in Yeast Biotechnology and Microbial Ecology for Honeybee Health Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden

Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden is recruiting a PhD student for the project BeeViva: Beneficial Yeasts for Healthier Honeybees . The project sits at the intersection of microbiology , genomics , microbial ecology , yeast biology , and bee health , with a strong sustainability angle linked to agriculture and resilient food systems. The research uses a unique collection of more than 2,500 yeast isolates from Swedish honey to investigate how beneficial yeasts may support hon...

Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) is advertising a 2-year postdoctoral researcher position in fungal ecology within the Soil Microbiology Group at the Department of Forest Mycology and Plant Pathology in Uppsala, Sweden. The project focuses on grassland fungi , especially the waxcaps and allied CHEGD fungi , which are important indicators of semi-natural grasslands and of conservation concern. The successful candidate will work with citizen scientists to map fungal diversity acro...

The Environmental Biotechnology cluster in the Industrial Biotechnology department at KTH Royal Institute of Technology is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to work on anaerobic processes for bioplastic valorization. The project centers on the co-fermentation of food waste and bioplastics to produce value-added bioproducts such as volatile fatty acids and biogas, with attention to the full pathway from bioproduction to microbial ecology analysis and downstream separation and pur...
