Kongens Lyngby, Lyngby-Tårbæk Kommune, Denmark DTU - Technical University of Denmark Full time

We are seeking a PhD student to join our team at DTU Biosustain. The project focuses on developing novel production schemes to integrate supply chain information of the feedstocks with techno-economic and life cycle assessment tools. As a PhD student, you will be responsible for designing a mathematical model to represent protein production based on various sugars and other non-conventional feedstocks.

Our team works in a dynamic and collaborative environment, with a focus on knowledge sharing, respect, trust, and enjoying each other's company. You will have the opportunity to work with a diverse range of people, including biologists, chemical/bioprocess and environmental scientists/engineers. We are looking for someone who can demonstrate excellent communication skills, outstanding problem-solving abilities, and a strong record of accomplishment in interacting with international academic and industrial stakeholders.

Your primary tasks will be to: design a framework to support informed decision making for stakeholders interested in microbially produced proteins using non-conventional feedstocks; identify sources of novel protein production and rank those based on practical considerations; develop a mathematical model to represent protein production based on various sugars and other non-conventional feedstocks; and deploy combined open-source tools to facilitate dissemination of science and tests to curate the outcomes generated during the project via GitHub.
