Odense M

We are looking for a postdoctoral scientist to join the lab of Amelia Rotaru at Nordcee, a section at the Department of Biology at the Faculty of Science, SDU. The lab conducts research in ecophysiology with a particular focus on electroactive microorganisms, microbe-mineral/metal, or interspecies interactions. We use electrochemistry, molecular biology, isotopic labelling, expression studies, genetic manipulations, and high-resolution microscopy tools to understand fundamental aspects of how microorganisms interact with their extracellular environment.

The position is for two years with the possibility to extend one year, depending on the progress of the candidate. Possible start on 1 September 2022. The position is fully funded by a European Research Council Consolidator grant. Together with a team of five you will explore the impact of anthropogenic minerals in interspecies interactions involved in methane cycling.

The aim of your project will be to study the molecular mechanisms of how syntrophic partners interact with each other via conductive minerals. Ultimately, you will use the knowledge to apply to the environment. You will be expected to carry out network analyses to predict interspecies interactions in connection to mineral composition of the costal marine sediments we study.

Requirements:

  • A PhD in ecophysiology, microbial ecology, microbial genetics, marine microbiology, or a very closely related field
  • Documented experience (e.g. published work) with omics, microbiome network analyses, gene deletion studies in organisms like Geobacter or methanogens
  • Experience with teaching and training students and staff
  • Good organization skills in the lab, but also for sampling expeditions at sea
  • Willingness to learn new methods (e.g. transposon mutagenesis, Crispr, big sequence data analyses; bioelectrochemistry etc.) and foster standards of practice for the lab.

This position is subject to the entry into force of grant agreement no by and between European Research Council Executive Agency (ERCEA) and SDU.

For further information please contact Amelia-Elena Rotaru at [email protected].
