Three PhD positions in ML-guided directed evolution in biochemistry, molecular machine learning, and synthetic biology University of Groningen in Netherlands

Postdoctoral Researcher position at the University of Groningen in the Faculty of Science and Engineering , working within the ML-GUIDE consortium on next-generation sequencing , third-generation sequencing , machine learning , and directed evolution . The project focuses on making directed evolution guidable and predictable by machine learning to accelerate the discovery of tailor-made (bio)catalysts and high-affinity binders for therapeutic targets and synthetic applications. The successful ca...

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 liq...

Stanford University’s SynBioGaoLab is advertising a computational postdoc focused on foundation models and sequence-structure-function studies of intrinsically disordered proteins . The project is described as part of a consortium using unique large datasets and an interdisciplinary team that bridges several labs. This opportunity is especially relevant for researchers with experience in machine learning , AI , protein design , and protein analysis . The post emphasizes computational work at the...

We’re hiring in the Garcia Lab at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) for a multi-university collaborative effort focused on high-throughput cell-free synthetic biology , intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) , and their role in human disease . Open roles: • Postdoctoral Research Associate — lead a project developing high-throughput assays and predictive models for IDP folding behavior. This role is a strong fit for someone with a background in protein biochemistry or syntheti...

Exciting postdoctoral opportunity at The Francis Crick Institute in the Osipova Lab , led by Katya Osipova . This role sits at the intersection of synthetic biology , evolution , generative AI , and computational biology . The successful candidate will develop cutting-edge computational approaches and work closely with experimental scientists to design the next generation of metabolic systems. The research programme aims to understand how evolution shapes metabolism and how AI can be used to cre...
