About the Project

Filamentous fungi hold great potential to aid the green transition of our diets by utilizing side streams and rendering them into delicious foods or producing food components. We want to understand the relationship between fungal phenotypes and genotypes in regards to features important for future food production.

Key Challenges

  • Develop relationships between fungal traits important for food production and their genome.
  • Collaborate with researchers in an interdisciplinary environment to tackle this challenge.
  • Keep updated on the scientific literature and entrepreneurial landscape.
  • Communicate scientific results effectively through publications and presentations.

What We Offer

  • A rewarding and challenging job in an international environment.
  • Opportunity to work with a highly motivated and dedicated team.
  • Access to state-of-the-art facilities and equipment.
  • Professional development opportunities.
