PhD and Postdoc Positions in Systems Biology in Denmark

[Annual stipend at the UKRI minimum rate of £21,805 per year plus a £1,000 per annum enhancement, and a research training support grant of up to £20,000 for the full 4-year programme.] This PhD studentship at The University of Manchester focuses on improving the production of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in oleaginous yeasts using a transcriptomics-guided, enzyme-constrained metabolic modelling approach. The project aims to connect RNA-seq data, proteomics, genome-scale metabolic models, ...

This postdoctoral project at Amsterdam UMC focuses on multilayer network analysis to connect biological processes across scales, from molecules to brain networks to cognition. The work sits in neuro-oncology and broader neuroscience, with disease contexts including glioma and Alzheimer’s disease . You will develop integrated network models that combine proteomic data with brain network imaging to study how early cellular and molecular changes lead to large-scale network disruptions and cognitive...

Stockholm University is offering a postdoctoral position in experimental chemical physics within the Department of Physics and the Division of Chemical Physics. The fellow will join Foivos Perakis’s research group and contribute to HYDRA, a project funded by the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation. HYDRA investigates how water and protein sequence jointly control the formation and maturation of biomolecular condensates. The research follows these systems from early molecular interactions and li...

Purdue University's Department of Agricultural and Biological Engineering is recruiting motivated M.S. and Ph.D. students for fully funded interdisciplinary graduate research opportunities in the United States. The research group works at the intersection of computational systems biology, microbial and metabolic modeling, multi-omics integration, artificial intelligence, and biotechnology . Projects connect computational methods with food, health, agricultural, and environmental biotechnology, o...

The Saito laboratory at the University of Southern California is recruiting a Research Associate to contribute to studies of innate immunity against human pathogenic viruses and bacteria in the setting of liver diseases. The project sits at the intersection of cell biology, virology, genetics, molecular biology, and systems biology, with an emphasis on pathogen-host interactions, inflammation, and immune responses linked to liver disease. The successful researcher will help identify research que...

This postdoctoral opening is in plant systems biology with a focus on climate change resilience . The project sits at the intersection of biological sciences, technology, and agricultural sciences, and is aimed at understanding how plants respond and adapt to changing environmental conditions. The position is hosted by the University of Leuven , offering a research environment connected to plant-focused and systems-level approaches. The advert points to a project-oriented role where the successf...

This PhD studentship at the University of Birmingham develops a mechanistic mathematical framework to explain how biofilm-associated infections lead to host-cell damage. The project focuses on the coupled biology of biofilm growth, nutrient transport, bacterial toxins, reactive oxygen species, inflammatory signalling, DNA damage, repair failure, and host-cell viability. The student will build and analyse models that connect biofilm structure with local biochemical gradients and tissue injury acr...

The National Laboratory of the Rockies (NLR) is recruiting a full-time Postdoctoral Researcher in Synthetic Biology and Metabolic Engineering for its RRES Center and Synthetic Biology and Bioconversion group in Golden, Colorado. The project focuses on using metabolic engineering and synthetic biology to engineer a genetically amendable, non-model bacterium. The researcher will investigate aerobic conversion of single-carbon (C1) substrates into fuels and chemicals, contributing to NLR’s broader ...

The University of Oldenburg is offering a postdoctoral research position in microalgal systems biology within the Institute for Chemistry and Biology of the Marine Environment (ICBM), part of the School of Mathematics and Natural Sciences. The position is based in the General and Molecular Microbiology group led by Prof. Ralf Rabus. The researcher will join the Lower Saxony collaborative project Marine Algal Systems Biology (MAlSyB) , a consortium involving the Universities of Oldenburg, Hannove...
