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

Are you an ambitious and curious researcher looking to demonstrate your bioengineering skills and contribute to a groundbreaking European project? We are seeking a highly skilled Postdoc to join our team at DTU - Technical University of Denmark.

The successful candidate will have the opportunity to explore the diversity of environmental hydrogenotrophic bacteria, link their growth performance to their genomic content, and develop hydrogenotrophic bacteria as chassis for heterologous protein expression.

This is an exciting chance to work with academic colleagues at DTU and abroad, contributing to common activities such as co-supervising BSc and MSc student projects.

We are looking for a researcher with a solid track record of research outputs, excellent communication skills, and the ability to prepare research plans and report scientific results effectively.
