About this position

Professor Wilhelm Huck at Radboud University Nijmegen is advertising two postdoctoral researcher vacancies within the European consortium PROPEL. The project aims to revolutionize sustainable bio-manufacturing by building an integrated, cost-efficient, scalable pipeline for producing protein-based materials and biocatalysts using synthetic cells.

The research focuses on a design-build-test-learn workflow that combines high-throughput experiments and active learning. The team will integrate liquid handling robots and high-speed microscopy with AI and machine learning to create stable liposomes from libraries of novel phospholipids that can robustly encapsulate cell-free gene expression systems. The pipeline will then be expanded to optimize yield and robustness of the cell-free expression system.

Ideal candidates should have a PhD in synthetic biology, chemical engineering, or a related discipline. Practical experience with cell-free gene expression systems and/or liposomes is preferred, along with interest in liquid handling robots, Python, and Bayesian optimization.

Applications should be sent directly by email as a CV and motivation letter to [email protected]. No deadline is stated in the post.

Funding details

Full funding including tuition fees and living expenses is available for this position. The scholarship covers all educational costs and provides a monthly stipend.
