University of Bath is recruiting a Postdoctoral Research Associate in an interdisciplinary project focused on mammalian cell biology , molecular biology , chemical biology , and peptide screening . The work will develop innovative intracellular peptide screening technologies to investigate and modulate transcription factor function in living mammalian cells. The post is hosted in Professor Jody Mason's research group at the University of Bath and is funded through a new BBSRC Pioneer Award . The...

Simon Moore’s group at Imperial College London is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher for a three-year Postdoctoral Research Associate position in biochemistry and microbiology. The project will investigate the biosynthesis of new-to-nature natural products , combining biological production with scaled-up manufacturing and purification. The researcher will contribute to developing and applying approaches that enable these compounds to be produced and recovered at larger scale. The position incl...

Funded PhD project at the University of Warwick in Coventry, United Kingdom , focused on Basidiomycota fungi , natural products biosynthesis , fungal genetic engineering , and engineering biology . The project aims to validate an engineering biology toolkit in Pleurotus ostreatus (oyster mushroom) by reconstructing biosynthetic pathways for selected bioactive natural products from Basidiomycota fungi. Research activities include cloning biosynthetic genes into expression vectors, fungal transfor...

Fully funded PhD opportunity at the University of Warwick within the Midlands Integrative Biosciences Training Partnership . The project focuses on the engineering of Basidiomycota fungi for the biosynthesis of high-value natural products . The research will test tools developed for oyster mushroom engineering and extend them to reconstruct natural product biosynthesis from other mushrooms. The project also includes in vitro validation of biosynthetic steps . This PhD combines genetic engineerin...
