Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark Københavns Universitet Full time
Job Description

We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join our team at the Department of Food Science, University of Copenhagen. The successful candidate will work on a 2-year project focused on understanding and utilizing the potential of multispecies bacterial communities to enhance plant protection and improve crop resilience.

The project aims to explore innovative approaches to reducing plant loss by using bacterial communities to enhance product longevity. The postdoc will lead efforts to design and optimize multispecies bacterial communities for enhanced bioprotection against plant pathogens. Responsibilities include constructing and screening bacterial communities from UCPH-FOOD's BioBank and plant isolates, validating their effectiveness in preventing soft rot, and fine-tuning species ratios and environmental conditions for stable protection.

The postdoc's duties will also include teaching and supervising student projects. The post may also include performing other duties in the research group.

Key Responsibilities
  • Design and perform independent research in multispecies interactions.
  • Collaborate with other researchers and laboratory staff on ongoing projects.
  • Analyze and interpret experimental data and prepare manuscripts for publication in peer-reviewed journals.
  • Maintain detailed and accurate records of experiments and procedures.
  • Present research findings at internal meetings, seminars, and scientific conferences.
Requirements
  • PhD or equivalent degree in biology, bioinformatics, biotechnology, molecular biology or microbiology.
  • Strong experience with cultivation and analysis of bacterial communities, in vitro biofilm models and confocal microscopy analysis of bacterial communities, genetic engineering of bacteria and fluorescence-based reporter systems.
  • Experience with bioinformatic analyses of bacterial genomes and meta-genomes.
  • Experience with evolution experiments and flow cytometry is a benefit.
  • Experience with doing data analysis in R- and/or Python.
  • Good interpersonal skills, and experience with collaborative work in larger international teams.
  • Enthusiastic and self-motivated.
  • Excellent English writing and speaking abilities.
