PhD position in Microbiology

January 24th, 2007
A 3-year PhD position is available on the topic “In situ gene expression and ecophysiology of thermophilic cyanobacteria in hot spring microbial mats”.

The project can start March 1st 2007 and will be co-supervised by professor Michael Kühl, Marine Biological Laboratory, University of Copenhagen (www.mbl.ku.dk/mkuhl) and professor Arthur R. Grossman, Carnegie Institution of Plant Science, Stanford University fttp://fumarole.stanford.edu/page.php?INDEX=12).

We seek a candidate with an excellent masters degree in environmental microbiology and with documented experience with microsensor technologyand/or molecular ecological methods. Experience with field work is advantageous.

The PhD project shall combine advanced molecular techniques for studying gene expression and regulation with modern microsensor techniques in ecophysiological studies of thermophilic photosynthetic bacteria in hot spring microbial mats. The work will primarily involve both laboratory based studies and field studies of hot spring microbial mats and cultivated thermophilic phototrophs but will also involve data mining of recently mapped genomes and metagenomes.

Field work will take place in Yellowstone National Park in collaboration with the supervisors and a NSF-funded Frontiers in Integrative Biological Research project http://landresources.montana.edu/FIBR/).

The candidate will be based at the Marine Biological Laboratory and enrolled as a PhD student at the Biology PhD School, University of Copenhagen. However, training and use of molecular techniques will largely take place at Stanford University during one or several visiting periods. Altogether, the candidate should be willing to spend about 30-50% of the project period in the US. Funding for travel and other moving expenses between Denmark and USA will be provided.

Deadline for applications is January 31’st 2007.

Applications should contain documentation for previous education and scientific achievements
(CV, graduation certificates, thesis and publications) as well as a letter of motivation containing a short (1-2 pages) outline for a research project under the given topic. Up to two letters of recommendation are accepted.

Applications and requests for further information should be send to:

Prof. Michael Kühl
Marine Biological Laboratory, Department of Biology, University of Copenhagen
Strandpromenaden 5, DK-3000 Helsingør, Denmark

All interested persons are encouraged to apply, regardless of age, gender, religious affiliation or ethnic background.

The qualifications of the applicant will be assessed by an assessment committee commissioned by the governing body of the PhD school. On the basis of the recommendations of this committee the Dean of the relevant faculty will make a decision for allocating the scholarship.

The terms of employment are stated in the agreement between the Danish Confederation of Professional Associations and the Ministry of Finance. The PhD programme must be completed in accordance with the Ministerial Order on the PhD Course of Study and on the PhD Degree of the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation, and the regulations and guidelines defined by the university where enrollment will take place.
