Postdoctoral Research Associate in Sulfur Biology and Hypoxic Escherichia coli University of Leicester in United Kingdom

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...

Funded PhD opportunity in viral DNA mimic proteins at the University of Bristol. Professor Mark Dillingham is seeking an enthusiastic PhD student to investigate how bacterial viruses (phages) produce proteins that masquerade as DNA and sabotage molecular machinery in bacterial hosts. The project will focus on discovering new DNA mimic proteins and understanding their mechanisms, including viral targeting of the bacterial DNA-processing enzyme RecBCD. Research will combine computational structura...

The Bacterial Metabolomics Group within the Cluster of Excellence Controlling Microbes to Fight Infections at the University of Tübingen is seeking a postdoctoral researcher in mass spectrometry-based metabolomics. The research focuses on understanding how bacteria regulate their metabolism by combining high-throughput LC-MS/MS metabolomics with CRISPR-based genetic screens. The work has applications in antimicrobial resistance, microbiome research, and synthetic microbiology. The postdoctoral r...
